Birth Control
"I had the best experience with the Depo-Provera. I first went on it Jan 2006. I have had absolutely no periods since then. I did gain some weight, about 20 pounds, but have been able to lose it with proper diet and exercise. I should point out, I frequently eat fast food and frozen pizzas, so that I&#039;m willing to bet that&#039;s the reason I gained weight and the Depo had very little to do with it. The shots weren&#039;t that bad and having to only get it every three months was very nice. I was on Depo-Provera for about 7 years and loved every minute of it, but every doctor I went to said that Depo-Provera isn&#039;t supposed to be long term and that I need to consider a different form of Birth Control. I will try Nexplanon and if I don&#039;t like it, I&#039;m going back on Depo-Provera."
