Side Effects

DMPA does not have adverse side effects like that of estrogen but women can experience a cease in their menstruation altogether in the first year. DMPA lasts in the body for a long time so the women who have been using this method of birth control will find a great deal of delay in returning to normal fertility. There are chances of weight gain, menstrual irregularities, and depression. This does not give protection against STDs.
