birth control
"I started on the Depo shot right before I entered college and it has been the best experience ever, mainly because I don't have any more periods. For the first 6 months, I had lighter and shorter periods without the awful cramps. And now after being on it for almost 2 years, I haven't had a period in a year and a half! I only went on birth control because I was scared of getting pregnant in college, but I would truly recommend this to anyone who is fed up dealing with period cramps and other inconveniences. Also, for any other college students, most universities will only charge $30 for the shot and injection, but since I already had the prescription from my doctor and my insurance, they only charged me $10 for the lab injection."
