Hello ma'am and welcome.
I am guessing your doctor did not inform you about a few of the side effects of the depo shot and this is one of them. It is nothing to be worried about and so you need not really take this as a cause for concern. But if it does not subside in a few days time or it is associated with other symptoms as well, I would recommend a visit to your prescribing doctor.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
