Does Depo Provera Intake Cause Anxiety?

I m just wondering if Depo Provera causes anxiety and if so, will it last the entire 3 months that it s in my system or will my body adjust to it? I received my first shot of it on Wednesday of this week and have had 2 full blown panic attacks in as many days. Not fun.

Hello,

I will suggest you to treat symptomatically as there is a due possibility of getting anxiety or restlessness with depo provera. As long as it remains in your system you need to take propranolol 10-20 mg.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
