What Causes Swelling In Breasts And Bloating While On Depo Shot?

I got a DEPO shot for birth control about two weeks ago. I already had all the symptoms you usually get after that shot but I m noticing weird changes now. I m tried frequently which is unusual. My breasts are swollen and my nipples are brownish colored. I feel bloated, almost like Im on my period. Im dizzy a lot and I have a random craving for something hot, saltly and fried.. I had sex about 3 days before the shot and got my period after I had sex. Is there anyway I could be pregnant? Is there anything I can do to get the shot out of my system if I am pregnant?

Hello,

In the current scenario, your symptoms are more likely due to the hormone effect. Chances of conception are none since you had the intercourse during the safe premenstrual period and you had the natural period after that. The hormone effect has to wear off and cannot be removed all of a sudden as with an implant, ring or IUD. Please get further help from your health care provider.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shanti Vennam
