    Depo Provera DMPA

    Here's a link you could check out in the meantime.

    Are you due soon for your next injection or did you just get it? Irregular bleeding is not unusual with depo provera. Pregnancy is possible, but it might also just be a side effect to the injection or simply a stomach virus.

    If you continue to feel unwell, check with your doctor.

    Have you got any advice should I get a test done or just see what happens? Thanks for your help so far

    You could try a test and see what results you get. Have you had periods while on the injection? If so, have you missed any yet?

    Maybe try a test, it will ease your concerns one way or the other, and then see how you feel over the next few days. If you feel worse or it doesn't change after a few days, see your doctor.
