Is any girl here on that and if you are, are some of the symptoms really bad mood swings, skin break outs and does your period stop?? Thanks

Replies islandgirl Posted at 2:11 am on Jan. 3, 2009 In a lot of women depo causes periods to stop all together. Like most hormonal contraception it can cause mood differences, weight gain, and a whole host of things that may OR may not happen. I really suggest talking to your Dr. about the side effects- it can cause bone loss so it's important to be taking enough calcium and vitamin D (you can talk to your dr. about this as well) This is a VERY effective form of birth control, but it's important to know the side effects and your doctor should really explain better than we can. BackPorch Posted at 4:25 pm on Jan. 2, 2009 Definitely sounds like common side effects panagma Posted at 4:22 pm on Jan. 2, 2009 Quote: from Rabgix at 4:21 pm on Jan. 2, 2009 Depo Provera dear.

Tubbz Posted at 4:21 pm on Jan. 2, 2009 They're fairly common side effects yes. Uptown Swag Posted at 4:21 pm on Jan. 2, 2009 Depo Provera dear. Youre taking it and you dont know what its called?
