A member asked:
Since stopping the depo shot i haven't had a period for 5 months and i am beginning to gain weight.should i be concerned and get checked out?

Yes, getting checked out would be a good idea. You may do a home pregnancy test. safe sex : https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
