Can the Depo really be causing this? Its says online depo side affects can take 6- 8 months to wear off. I've been getting the shot like 3 years. My last shot was December some time. They also said it can cause the heart palpitations I'm having?
Brief Answer:
Depo Provera causes stomach pain and tachycardia.
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for asking back.
Stomach disturbance and tachycardia (that may cause you to feel palpitations) are among relatively common side effects of Depo Provera use.
Generally there is no stomach or heart serious damage, only disfunction, so there's no need for that much time these symptoms to wear of.
Once Depo Provera is out of your system, you should start feeling better ( related to above mentioned symptoms).
Hope this helps. Wishing you good health.
