Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the Depo shots are excellent tool of birth control method used world wide. The common effect associated with the Depo shot is low menses or no menses for the period till its regularly consumed. So absence or scant menses is not to be worried.

The intercourse without condom on 14 July is nothing to worry about, and that is what for Depo is given to enjoy hassle free sex without barriers. For cramps, you can consume anti spasmodic medication as Dicyclomine or Drotaverine from the chemist shop.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
