General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello, I really appreciate your concern. Headaches, backache and stomach pain are unspecific symptoms and may be related to withdrawal of injections itself, hormonal imbalance and stress due to irregular menstrual cycle. I would like to ask you whether you were sexually active and had unprotected sexual intercourse after injection withdrawal. If yes then I advise you to rule out pregnancy by using urine pregnancy testing kit available in the pharmacy to be sure.
Hope my answer has solved your query. Take Care.
Thank you.
