What Causes Headache, Lower Back Pain And Nausea After Having Depo Shot?
A couple days before i was due for another shot i had brown discharge for a day and then 1 pink spot the next day and that was it. Its only been a week or to since i was due for another shot but i didnt go back. Iv been getting headaches, lower back pain on and off, very nauseous all the time, bloating and mild cramping in lower stomach but nothing serious. I kept thinking i was going to start my period and never did. Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex like a week before i was due for another shot and he ejaculated in me. Is it possible that i could be pregnant?

Hello ma'am and welcome.
Your symptoms march those seen after a depo shot and I would not have taken this further. But as you do have a positive history of unprotected sexual contact just a while before your depo shot, it would be wise to get a home pregnancy test conducted using an early monring urine sample just to be on the safer side.
Best wishes.
