Do Birth Control Shots Cause Hormonal Imbalance With Irregular Periods And Mood Swings?
Hi there, about two months ago I was on the injection for two months only. During this time I still got my period and I gained a lot of weight. Once i stopped I found that my period is very irregular as I was getting it twice a month and my mood swings are a lot worse. I have heard of hormone imbalance and I am not an expert but im guessing that is the problem. What would you suggest I do about it?
Yes, all your complaints are due to birth control shots which cause a hormonal imbalance with irregular periods and mood swings and increased body weight. Please see your gynae expert.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
