I have been on depo since November and never had a major problem until now. For the past 2 weeks I have had an upset stomach, shooting pains in my abdomen and chest and well as a minor head ache. All of these symptoms are minor though. Even so I know something is wrong. I did think it had anything to do with the shot until I looked at the "rare but serious side effects" of depo, these included upset stomach and chest pain. The web sites all say if you have them contact your doctor asap. But I am 18 and my mom would kill me if she knew i was on birth control. Anyway has anyone experienced these side effects? What happened? Also all the web sites say they are serious side effects but none say what could happen if you don't get it check out. Anyway i would just appreciate some advice or personal experience. Thanks. Sorry it was long.
Also I have been kind of stressed, I think that could be a reason... (link)

Relax
You are an adult it is YOUR choice to whether you tell your mother or not. As an adult you legally have the right to obtain your privacy.
I was on the depo provera shot for 2 years, I didn't experience ALL the symptoms you've describe but I did experience shooting abdominal pains, Headaches/Light dizziness. These are the side effects to the birth control shot as birth control is NOT always for everyone which is why we have a variety of things to choose from. To answer your question, You may need to consult your gynecologist and seek another option. From my experience the depo shot made me gain 60 pounds and not to scare you or anything hun but I have read some pretty bad stories about how it can scar your uterus and make some people become infertile. Consult your doctor
