Getting back to normal symptoms?

Last Nov. was the last Depo shot i had and I only had 3 shots total(on it for less than a year). I got my period back in May and it has been pretty regular until Sept/Oct hit. I had my period and then 2 weeks later had another that lasted at least 10 days. Went to doctor and he said it was probably a hormanal thing? Well now it has been over a month and now haven't got another one but have all the symptoms and more -gasy, very crampy, very hungry. Do you think my body is just still adjusting from being off of Depo? I thought because I wasen't on it for very long, it wouldn't take my body too long to become regular again.

Hi there,

I am feeling the same way right now. I have really bad gas, hearburn, and I'm so hungry all of the time. I heard you can have pregnancy symptoms after coming off depo which makes this so confusing, and periods aren't regular yet so you can't even tell if you're late or not. I bled for 17 days last month and today is 32 days since the beginning of my last period. Are you getting any acne or pains in you stomach, because I am, and I don't know if it is a symtom of coming off of depo or not. I also had cramps a few days ago but no period. It's hard to know what to think about this.
