Nauseous and Losing Weight - Should I Be Worried?

Does anyone else get super nauseous to the point you just don’t eat because of how nauseous you are? I lost 7 pounds since I started taking it and I don’t workout I just barely eat anymore. With my nausea and sensitivity to certain food plus being busy I barely eat anymore. I’m not really complaining because I’m a big girl but I was told I would gain like 15-20 pounds and had the opposite affect? Should I be worried? I don’t have any other problems besides being really emotional and all that jazz but nothing is super concerning but weird lol

I feel like the depo is causing the opposite effect to happen. Since depo causes you to gain and the medicine your taking is magnifying the affect

I also take depo and it seems you're having the opposite of what the effects should be and you should talk to your doctor about it. So much nausea isn't normal either. I've been on depo for a year now and gained about 10 pounds, if I'm ever nauseous it's only slightly and nothing some nausea medicine can't help. Even in the first month of having it I was never unbearably nauseous like I was with the pills. It sounds like depo isn't the one for you and you should look at some other options with your doctor.

I am on depo and originally gained weight but it took about 6 months to a year to notice the weight gain. I have a friend who never gained any weight on depo so it could be different for everyone. Only lasted about a year or so and now I am rapidly losing weight due to a different medical condition. The nausea could be a reason to go off of depo for sure especially if you have no other underlying conditions or are on any other medications. My anxiety causes severe nausea as well as food aversions
