Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
"The Depo just doesn&#039;t work for me. It was great at first, it lightened my periods but 7 months in and my period started lasting up to 2+ weeks. Back in March 2017, I asked to get my shot early (I was due in April) in hopes to stop the bleeding and it did. A month later my period came back and I took these low dosage birth control pills my doctor gave me which stopped the bleeding up until I finished the pack this month, and I started bleeding again. This time, however, I&#039;m bleeding A LOT. My cycle&#039;s super heavy, and my normal period&#039;s before depo were never like that. This depo is messing up my body and it&#039;s made me gained weight like crazy. I&#039;m switching to the implant in my arm method tomorrow, and I really hope that works better for me"
