I've been on the depo shot for 9 months and I decided to stop because the side effects were really taking a toll on me. I was suppose to get my shot in the beginning of January, and now I've been experiencing stomach pains and feeling like I want to puke and it's worse in the morning than later in the day. My boobs are getting bigger. My joints are hurting me more. Me and my boyfriend also have been having unprotected sex. Someone of the people I've told have told me I might be pregnant. I'm too scared to take a test. I just wanted to know if anyone else had experienced this when they were off the shot or any advice?
