Endometriosis
"I have been on MANY birth control pills and hardly any of them were beneficial to me. I switched to this injection and I&#039;m so happy I did. I started birth control when I was 15 bc  my cramps were unbearable. Endometriosis runs in the fam. I also had bad acne so I was trying to alleviate both of those issues. The depo shot didn&#039;t affect my acne in any way but it has almost completely diminished my cramps. The first 3 months were rough. didn&#039;t bleed for a month and 1/2 after getting it, but then I bled until it was time for my next shot. I got my second shot and didn&#039;t have my period for three months. It was AWESOME. Spotting around the due date for next shot is normal. Oh and the shots are painless. Stick through the rough first months!"
