A member asked:

Does the depo shot causes for your breast to get bigger or fill like they are bigger?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Michael Kleerekoper answered

Breast: Breasts don't generally get much bigger at your age unless you are quite overweight. The depo shot should not effect this.
