A member asked:

Iv had 2 shots of the depo-provera but iv been feeling odd iv lower abdomen cramps bloating a nausea is this a sign of early pregnancy i dont have periods?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depo is reliable: Very unlikely to be pregnant on Depo. Symptoms more likely related to GI tract such as constipation. See your doctor if worsening or not improving.
