Frequent urination, frequent drinking, nausea, stomach pains, weight gain, etc. are not signs of pregnancy. The three negative pregnancy tests confirmed that you are not pregnant. The absence of the period is an expected and temporary side effect from the contraceptive shot.

For the rest of the symptoms you should consult your GP because they can be due to many disorders.
