Answers:
Well when I was on the depo shot, I loved it! I went on it as soon as it first came out, stayed on it for three years! Then I went to the doctor and had to sign a warning about bone damage and calcium deficiency!. I had no problem, and as a result went on a small dose!. I never had spotting, never got my period, gained five pounds but nothing drastic!. Then I decided to stop taking it!. For six months my period didn't resume!. Then I got it, and while it was on time, it varied in length (any where from 3 to even eight days)!. I called my doctor and he said that my body just had to get used to being off it because depo tricks your body into thinking you're pregnant!. Finally almost 2 years later my body has just started being normal (I always had normal cycles until I got off Depo)!. While I was on it I was in high school and undergrad and loved it, I could never remember taking pills, and I thought the patches were so embarrassing and tacky (grew up with mostly boys)!. So Depo worked for me, I was given warnings about all those horror stories but I guess I was lucky nothing bad happened!. And as for the wacky period, it worked it self out!.



**Added details: I went on it before the class action law suits, I never had a problem, that's when I had to sign the waiver and switch to a lower dose, still no issues!. I had to get the shot on the first day of my period when I first got it!. I don't remember if it lasted the usually five days but I do remember I immediately stopped having it!. Almost every drug on the market has a class action if they cause one symptom that isn't on the FDA approved warning label, including aspirin!. Its good to be safe but talk to your doctor about your concerns!.!.!.maybe not people on Yahoo Answers!. Good LuckWww@Answer-Health@Com

Read those reviews, and google depo provera lawsuit!.

I was on it for over four years and I'd never ever ever recommend it to anyone!. It is normal to not bleed at all, or to bleed for MONTHS on depo!. I had horrible side affects, to me depo provera is just not worth it!.

Please do MORE research on the shot (and anything else you put in your body!) before getting your next one!. It treats many women quite horribly, the health issues they have have led to class action lawsuits!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
