A member asked:
I have vaginal cramps after sex. why? i am on the depo- provera (medroxyprogesterone) shot . does that have anything to do with it ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Depo provera (medroxyprogesterone) does not produce cramping. Uterine and vaginal cramping occur because they are smooth muscles that get stimulated with sexual activity including orgasm.
