    Side effect of stopping injection
    I was on the 2 month injection for 9 months. I stopped and now my breast is growing and I'm getting a belly which I never had before. It feels like I'm getting fat :( I also have headaches I don't know if I'm getting flu or if its th side effects of leaving th injection. Please tell me th side effects of stopping the injection.

    You'll have to be more specific. What injection? We need to know the name of it, how often you took it, etc.

    Here is info on this injection.

    It's temporary birth control method, from what I read. Why were you on it for 8 months?

    Especially read the side effects portion.

    Then you really should talk to your doctor about these side effects, because everything you described is a side effect of the injection you've been taking for 8 months.

    There are no doctors on this site, or any other. No doctor would risk their license by diagnosing online. If you're concerned by these side effects, which are conducive to the shot you've been taking, you really should talk to your doctor about them.

    You really won't find answers online. You asked about the side effects of the shot you've been taking, I provided you with a link which lists the side effects, some of which you're experiencing. This should have been something you researched before getting this shot, not 8 months later.

    I really don't know what you want us to do for you.

    How long ago did you stop? Is it possible you are pregnant?

    The side effects would usually be unusual bleeding. It sounds like you have something else going on besides stopping the injection.
