abnormal uterine bleeding
"Been on depo for about two years I think, maybe two and a half? At first it was fine. It stopped my periods almost completely, with occasional spotting around the time my periods should be. But since my last injection I've gained 10 pounds, developed terrible acne, and over the past two months have bled every single day. Sometimes a little, sometimes enough to soak through a tampon in an hour. I normally gain 2-5 pounds on other forms of birth control but with the added 10 in the past few months, I've gained a total of 15 pounds since starting depo. That's crazy. I've always had really clear skin but noticed a significant decline when I first started depo, and in the past two months my skin has just gone crazy, it looks terrible."
