Hi,
The symptoms like nausea and bloating can happen after taking depo shots and I is due to the hormonal actions of contraceptive shot. It is more predominant on the initial days and I will settle as days progress. You can take antacids like Pantoprazole and Domeperidone for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist, better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
