Hannibal Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Depo is probably the worst form of birth control there is. Its super hard on you body and can have long term effects. I would suggest switching the the pill. Link to comment
Bingo72 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I have been on depo for over four years now. The problem with it is that you don't usually have a period, but if you finally do start to spot then it seems to last a few weeks. I don't think there is much you can do about it but you are just starting out and I think once your body adjusts then this continuous spotting will stop like it did for me. It would happen about three time a year and last about two to three weeks for me. Other than that I've never had bad side effects from it at all. Link to comment
butterflykiss04 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I was on depo and ended pregnant with my son but never had a period which was good so its strange because depo usually puts a stop to periods or makes them lighter and left often but I guess you cant count on what they say because I ended up pregnant now I am using a 10 IUD anyway have you heard of the new pill that lets you get only 4 perionds a year talk to your doc!
