Alright, I have recently got the depo shot (Feb. 20) and my menstrual cycle, i thought had started this past Friday (Mar. 8) but after not even a day there was no sign of blood but i was still having the pains and symptoms i would be if i had my period. Is it possible for the shot to take effect as fast and already change my cycle?

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Depo contains progesterone hormone.
Its effect starts in 24 hours.
Your symptom of pain is a side effect of depo.
You need not be concerned.
It will normalize in 15 days.
Take any of the NSAID,s if pain is severe.
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Farha
