Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

You have not mentioned your age, and the reason for which you are on depo shot. In case you are sexually active, I would advise you for a complete blood count, urine pregnancy test, a serum HCG and an ultrasound of the abdomen to rule out any pelvic pathology.

If I were your doctor, I would first do a clinical examination of your abdomen before proceeding for the above, and the management would depend on the clinical findings and results of investigations. Till then, I might advise you for an antispasmodic drug for a symptomatic relief.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef
