Have Headaches, Cramps In Stomach, Dizziness, Nausea, Frequent Urination. On Depo Shots. Pregnant?
Im on Depo shot. My first injection was on Dec 31st.I just had my second injection on March 28th. However, I have not had a period since Feb 8th. I am experiencing pregnany symptoms. Nausea, indigestion, cramping, headaches, dizziness, and peeing more. I have taken 2 hpt and one blood test all of which were negative. With my last pregnancy all hpt's were negative, and hcg levels were low until later in my pregnancy. Is there still a chance that I could be pregnant?

Hi,
With all the negative tests and with your past history, the only way left to know if you are pregnant is to perform a trans-vaginal sonogram. This would clarify the issue. It is more likely that you are experiencing the side effects of the depo shot as the mimic those of early pregnancy. For further assistance please contact your gynecologist. Take care.
