Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
"Age: 35
Reason for meds: I was suffering from constant night-sweats, and extreme PMS at the end of my cycles. Due to a history of DVTs I was unable to use estrogen based b.c. My doctor put me on Depo-Provera to stop the night sweats and get my hormone levels back on track.
Results: Mixed. The depo did stop the night sweats and mood swings, I never get my monthly break-out, and I&#039;ve found that I&#039;ve lost some weight because I&#039;m no longer bloated. That&#039;s the good news. The bad news: I spotted or bleed continuously to the point where I became slightly anemic and needed a second hormone based b.c. to get the bleeding stopped."
