Since the breast complaints and the DepoProvera therapy coincide, it's
seems reasonable that the medication is causing the problem. If your
breast exam is normal, you may wish to talk to your doctor about your
symptoms and discuss what form of birth control has an "acceptable"
amount of side effects.
Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
