birth control
"I have been on the depo shot for almost 10 months now and it hasn't been too bad. The only problems I've had is severe mood swings, nausea, and headaches daily. I'm a sick person anyways so I'm not sure if I've gotten other side effects but I do know those are from the depo. My periods are now pretty much gone. My second shot I had a period for about 2 months but it wasn't heavy. I plan on getting off of it though after this shot wears off because I have been reading a lot of bad things about the shot. Severe mood swings, depression, anxiety, hair loss, osteoporosis, infertility, etc. I eventually want to get pregnant but you can lose all options if you continue the shot for an extended period of time and I don't want that to happen."
