Do Depo Birth Control Shot Cause Muscle Twitches?

Does the depo birth control shot cause muscle twitches? I've had several in my stomach and some throughout the rest of my body; however, I just had my second baby almost four months ago now and really do not want another so it has caused me to worry. I took a pregnancy test a couple days ago that was negative but jut concerned.

Hi, I think muscle twitches can happen due to calcium deficit. So, you can take some calcium supplements. It can be a side effect of depo also. So, it will go away with time. Hope I have answered your question.
