Depo Provera side effects?

Unread post by Whimsy »

Hi to everyone reading, I am brand new here. I had a question- for anyone that is currently using Depo as their form of BC or because of any other reason(s), I was curious to know if you have experienced any side effects, if yes, that you don't mind sharing, and if you are comfortable doing so, how long into the treatment did you start experiencing side effects?

I started the depo shot for the first time. I got my shot two days ago and I have read about some side effects and I am curious to see when I should expect to notice them, if they do show up.


Thank you for reading. :)

A good starting place might be this thread: http://www.scarleteen.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=38 No one has added to it since we moved to the new boards, but if you click on the link at the end of the post, it takes you to our archive, and there are some experiences that users have shared.
