Does Depo Shot Have Any Side Effects?
My daughter is 16, just had a baby 11/5, and had the depo shot around the beginning of January. She was doing fine but all of a sudden her behavior is deplorable. She acts mean, says mean things, doesn t care about anything but herself and her needs. Is this a side effect of this shot?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM'
I really appreciate your concern, of course the "Depo" have a numbers of side effects but that is not obvious this drug alters and disturbs the natural hormonal cycle which are functioning for manses and reproductive system, the symptoms that you have stated here, and your daughter has this may not be due to the Depo shot, but this seems functional problems, hope this information helps you, have nice day,
