Birth Control
"I&#039;ve been on Depo full time since I was 22. I&#039;m now 34 and still on it. I am so in love with this birth control, it&#039;s almost like an addiction for me. In the beginning I did have some side effects with the first few rounds of shots. Headaches 4 to 5 days a week, but nothing a couple of Tylenol couldn&#039;t handle. Some slight weight gain, and mood swings. After a week on the first shot, my periods stopped completely. I have not had a full on period in 12 years. I have spotted a few times, but that happens maybe twice a year and even then it&#039;s only for a day at the most. I&#039;m still having mood swings, but those only seem to be during the week of when my shot is due. It absolutely fits into my plans of NEVER having a child. It&#039;s the best!"
