On Depo For a Week And Doing Great! Posted: 09-13-06 10:07am
I'd just like to say that i've been on the
depo shot for almost a week now and I am
doing great! With some mild side effects,
but great!
Lol. Funny, just before this, I wrote out
this whole post on my experience so far
and it got deleted. I went to add option
for the poll option, and it made me sign
in again. Wow! So maybe, when I get
another chance I will post the whole story
to show people that not every depo shot
experience is a horror story! Lol!!!!

I'm on ortho-lo, and aside from an
accident involving travel, forgetting one
pack and getting another, i've been
absolutely fine as well :) I love that it
relieves my cramps! My period was always
light so that wasn't much to me... But I
always had extreme acne. The pill helped
with that too!

Hey, I think it's cool that there is
someone else that has had no problems with
their birth control. Makes me feel, not
so alone. ^_^ lol.

Dont get your hopes up too high, you have
only been on the shot for a week, not alot
can happen, just give it time, and I bet
you money you will be wishing you never
done it. I was on it for two years and
regret it and everyone else I know that
has ever been on it hated it and has been
having problems since. But I wish you all
the luck with depo though

I was on the depo for two years. And I
t was wonderful. I did not have a
period for two years(score) lol. Just
make sure you get alot of calcium. I am
bi polar and the depo actual evened out my
mood swings. It was nice not to have to
take the drug the depo was enough. :d
the drugs just make
a zombie I could not do anything at all.

I had bad side effects from the depo and
so did several of my friends. 2 of them
including myself gained massive weight. I
gained 90 pounds in a year my other
friends gained anywhere from 20 to 50
pounds. Another friend of mine lost
weight so rapidly and to much for her
frame she was almost hospitalized. Her
lowest weight was 89 pounds. (iwish I had
that side effect instead I can afford to
lose a few!!!) anyway I had several other
side effects such as my husband thinking I
was having an affair because I wouldn't
have sex with him so he thought I was
getting it from somewhere else. But in
all actuality I had no desire in fact the
whole thought of it was repulsive!!!!! I
also had extremly bad mood swings from
being happy, to crying, angry then back to
happy again in a matter of 30min. There
is plenty more but I won't go on and on
but if you want to know more you could
always pm me and we can talk!!!!

i am also very sensitive. I was first
put on the pill, I have never thrown up
that much in my life. I have been in on
depo for little over a year now with no
side effects.
