Perimenopause and the depo shot
Posted , 8 users are following.
I'm new to the forum and have a question I'm hoping someone else can relate. I've been on the depo provera shot for years and started having bad anxiety flare up after my last shot and found out that I am in perimenopause stages and have been for a few years and would like to know if I should stop getting the shot? I don't know how I will know when I hit menopause if I'm on the shot as it causes me to have no period. I don't want to cause me more anxiety if I stop the shot but since it's the underlying cause of my anxiety I would like to know someone else's thoughts?? Anyone know what I should do? This anxiety is too much.

I would love to know how things went for you after stopping the Depo. I too have been on it for a very long time, am 46 yo and sounds like I had the same exact issue. I thought I was having a heart attack and went to the ER. I am so afraid, this is awful. I can’t function and go to work like this. Any advice or input is grately appreciated.
