Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.

Depo-Provera shots have its own safety profile and adverse effects. Some of them are:

Irregular or no, menstrual periods
Appetite changes and Stomach upset
Blaoting and Indigestion


The symptoms you feel are very typical of the side effects of Depo-Provera. It doesn't seem pregnancy. Some women start feeling side effects sooner some report appearing later.


Consult your Gynaecologist for further investigations and evaluation.
