Has your husband gotten himself checked? The other kids aren't his right? I was on depo for 3 years and got pregnant 6 months after my last shot.

it's made me cry reading all your stories.
previous to having depro i had two natural pregnancies ending in miscarriage, i then had two shots off depro and decided it was time to start trying for a baby, had no period for a year, went through a year of blood tests every month to see if i was ovulating with no luck then had the laparoscopy with no reason for me not to conceive, later on i was put on clomid, i fell on my 2nd cycle but didn't know as pregnancie tests were negative and i nearly died with an errupted eptopic on my 23rd birthday! exactly a year today in fact, now i'm on my first cycle of clomid, day 8 and fingers crossed.
depro should be banned, i'm sure if i hadn't have had those shots i would have been a mum by now without all these operations and tablets!
it really shouldn't be on the market, does it cause eptopics and miscarriages i wonder?
what ever it does its not natural to take away a womens monthly period, and give you mood swings like you could murder someone!!!!!
i think it was over 3 years ago i had those shots!

michelle - March 2

didn't quite understand what you ment? are you on depro shot and have you missed period? its very likely, i didn't bleed for 6 months and took ages for them to return to normal.

I was on the depo shot last feb 2004, i came off it when i should have gone back for my next shot, I then went on the oral pill and that brought my period back straight away after my 1st pill packet so i would recommend you try that if your periods haven't returned after stopping the depo injection!

I had recently went to my gyno and she told me the depo is still wearing off even though it has been over a year. My periods came back 4 months after and I haven't had one now since the beginning of December. She said that if I don't get my period soon she will give me something to jumpstart my periods again. I wish all of you luck and you are in prayers!

I have been on depo on and off for 8 years in between I have had three beautiful children, although I've never had any problems. I have known others not to be able to become pregnant for 2 years. I wish you the best.

hi.girls i know just what you'll are talking about. me and my husband are trying for another baby we have a son after he was born i took the depo shot 1 time effective for 3 months. the whole 3 months i blead. after that i went on the pill now i've been off everything for almost a year and im still not getting any symptoms of ovulation, and we dont know if were able to get pregnant again. so im in for getting the depo off the market. young girls like myself who think its great before they take it could screw up there whole lifetime by not being able to have kinds luckily i have 1 already.. good luck everyone.

I was on depo for 3 years i gained about thirty pound but besides that no other problems.(that was enough though) Then I went on bc pills for about a year. Now I am not taking anything and my period is like clock work the 26th of every month, but I can't tell when I ovulate so I need some help with that. Good Luck With All Of Your Efforts.

I was on depo for 6 years been off 1 year and still no period or kids. I think depo should be banned and new research on it to make sure when you come off you maybe able to have the children you want. I think it is messing up our body and making women unfertial
