abnormal uterine bleeding
"I loved the idea of taking one shot and not having to deal with pills. The birth control pills never worked for me, they made me sick and did not prevent pregnancy. I've had 4 shots so far, the 1st one was great, I had no period for the first month, but then the second month I had heavy bleeding and what my doctor described to me as "my vaginal wall falling out of my body" it was horrifying, I will spear you the details but needles to say it scared the crap out of me. I continued with my shots, listening to my doctor, she told me that my body just had to get used to the shot. I'm due for a shot next week and I've decided to go w/o the shot has caused me mood swings, bleeding uncontrollably etc. no more depo!! It's horrible"
