A member asked:

Had depo-provera in jan=constant bleeding for 8 weeks so cycle out of sink! now nipples tingle,nausea,cramps&dizzy. preg test negative. what's wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Consider: I would consider another option for you, other than the Depo-Provera. The Depo-Provera is a very very high dose of progesterone. Some women have only mild side effects but other women have major side effects. The ones you describe sound major. Consider talking to your doctor about other options. Good luck.
