Stomach Pain, Bubbles In Stomach. Had Unprotected Sex, On Depo Shot. Pain In The Sides While Breathing. Pregnant Or Side Effects Of Birth Control?
Hi. So I ve had unprotected sex on February 24th and a few times before. I am on the depo shot and have been having bubbles in my stomach and stomach pain. I ve had headaches and I ve been bleeding for about 3 1/2 weeks. Spotting sometimes and sometimes like its my period. Also my sides have been hurting when I breathe. Could I be pregnant or is it side effects from the birth control shot? I am only 16 and very worried.
Depo injection consists of progesterones. Progesterone is associated with some side effects. Some of them are: 1. nausea, bloating, diarrhea, pain abdomen 2. dizziness, hot flushes 3. joint pain 4. breast pain 5. Change in weight 6. Acne 7. Vaginal dryness, vaginal discharge
These are minor side effects of progesterone preparation and they disappear over a period of time. There is nothing to worry about them. However, if you experience symptoms like numbness, migraine like head ache, pounding heart beat, fever with chills, breast lump, swelling of body, etc, you need to consult your doctor immediately.
Thanks and take care Dr Shailja P Wahal
