Why depo in 1st plac: Sorry to hear what you car going through. Your symptoms are quite broad and difficult to tell the origins based on the info provided. However, having a history of an ovarian cyst(s) and absent menses for a month may indicate possible pcos as a cause. Lupron (leuprolide) is not generally consider a treatment option for this condition of course but the depot itself can be associated with headaches. Talk with pcp.

Well: I doubt that your symptoms have to do with the depot shot though sometimes you can have irregular bleeding for up to 3 months after the shot. The headache is not from the shot. Are you stressing about it? That could give a headache! the headache is not part of the depot unless from an bleed that is coming or from stress, hope that helps. Good luck and hope you feel better.
