Birth Control
"Started at 18, was active, normal weight. Started gaining weight right away but didn&#039;t think much of it until I realized I was having to buy larger sizes, but didn&#039;t seem to have BC alternatives as I&#039;m forgetful so pills wouldn&#039;t work. Over the course of 5 years, I have gained over 100 lbs, hair started greying early, loss of energy, loss of interest in life, and thinning hair, dry skin. Basically depo put me into menopause state, I was early 20s and felt decades older. I went from a size 12 to a size 24. And now 2 decades later, I still have that extra weight on me-no matter what it just won&#039;t come off! I am tired all the time, I hardly eat but still gain weight  easily. Depo ruined my life, it took me as a young adult and made me old."
