OBGYN 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
The possible causes for your problem are :
- Blood loss during the delivery can cause anemia and that can present with palpitations, dizziness etc.
- Side effects of the depo.
-Postpartum depression. Some women may have postpartum depression after delivery.
-Thyroid abnormalities
So you once consult gynecologist, get examined.
If anemia is there, you need iron supplements.
If the cause is found to be depo, you can shift to some other contraceptive method.
In case of postpartum depression, you may need psychological councilling and support of your family members in dealing with the problems.
Check for thyroid profile once.
Take care.
