Depo shot and dizzy

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

I'm curious if anyone else is on the depo shot and has experienced strange side-effects?

We've been trying to pin-point the cause of this constant weird, kinda-dizzy, weak, fuzzy-brained feeling I've been having for months that only seems to be getting stronger, not better. At first we assumed sleep deprivation, but LO only gets up for a few minutes maybe once or twice a night, then they thought I was hypoglycemic, but that's not making sense either.

I read somewhere that the depo shot can cause dizziness, weakness, hot flashes (had these as well - thought it was blood sugar).

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

    Yes dizziness is a side affect of Depo . Along with nervousness, loss of scalp hair , increase in body hair , leg cramps , decreased sex drive , weight gain, not able to loss weight , fatigue , nausea , and yes hot flashes. Also you should not be on Depo for more than 2 years because it causes bone loss . So I am not sure why I am taking It

    Ditto PPs - I was on it for 9 months and was always dizzy, and it really did screw my whole body up for a while after I got off of it (it also took almost 2 years to conceive, and the only thing the Dr. could figure was that stupid shot!) I've always regretted using it and am so glad I'm back on a regular pill now.
