What Causes Breast Tenderness And Body Pain After Withdrawal From Depo Shot?

Hi, I was on the depo injection for 3 years and recently stopped as my partner and I are going to try for a baby, I was due my injection on the 16th of March this year. Since I have stopped my boobs and nipples are very tender, my body aches on time too, is this normal? Oh and no signs of a period yet

Hello,

The breast tenderness can be due to change in hormonal levels in body. Menstruation may take few months to resume.

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