Get the ultrasound: and an exam with a doctor; that will be much more helpful than making guesses online with nothing else to go on. Best of luck.

Hormone Changes: Your hormones are fluctuating. Not sure why you would be getting an ultrasound unless there are other reasons. Your hormones are in flux and will be so for a bit longer as you transition off of the DEPO.
