Was Taking Depo Injections, Now Discontinued. Not Having Periods Since Then. Having Sore Abdomen. Reason?

I was having depo injection for 5 yrs, and have now stopped. I haven t had my periods yet since I stopped the injection which has been nearly 4 months now. I have recently noticed my abdominal area is becoming very sore. It feels sore on left and right side, if I press it its more painful. I am worried what that could be. I understand that it can take a while for your periods to come back but why abdominal pains?

Hello!
Delayed return of fertility and irregular cycles may occur after discontinuation of treatment.
Abdominal pains have no relation with this but you should do a consult with your gyn. to rule out the ovarian cysts or masses ,or other causes.
At least you should do an ultrasound.
