You need to ask your gynaecologist to be sure about it. Get your TSH checked at some lab. The side effects of the birth control shot can include: irregular periods, which are more common in the first 6 to 12 months after your first injection. Increased spotting and breakthrough bleeding. A change in appetite. Weight gain. A change in sexual drive and interest. Nausea. Tender, sore breasts. A headache.
