A member asked:
Doctor injected depo-provera further back more into the shoulder region rather then the middle the the upper arm muscle and was swollen for several days?

Depo injection: This can happen. The Depo-Provera will work as long as it is administered into a muscle, so upper arm vs deltoid vs buttocks are all acceptable locations for administration.
