Off Depo, Had Unprotected Sex, Tender Swollen Breasts, Mood Swings, Light Spotting, Lard Abdomen, Negative Pregnancy Tests. What Does This Indicate?
Hi, I m really confused, I came off the depo around 2 months ago and had unprotected sex with my partner frequently for the first month. Now I have extremely tender swollen breasts, mood swings and about 3 weeks ago I experienced light spotting. My lower abdomen also feels quite hard. However I ve taken two pregnancy tests , one around 3 weeks ago and another a few days ago and both came out negative! Could I still be pregnant?

Hello
Welcome to HCM forum
Depo inj can cause delayed periods and irregular periods.
Breast tenderness can be due to depo shot
To be extra careful you should repeat pregnancy test after a week and if possible get an ultrasound done.
Best wishes
