Hi,
Depo-Provera can cause similar symptoms especially on the first days of usage.
You can take analgesics like Ibuprofen or Mefenamic Acid for symptomatic relief.
If the symptoms are severe, better to consult a physician and be evaluated to rule out other causes of these symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
