I have used Depo Proera on and off now for about 8 years. I began due to Endometriosis and it was a perfect solution to cease menstration and try to reduce the severity and pain. NOTHING ELSE HAD WORKED! (Even steriods and i had been diagnosed at twelve so i had many years of experiements). I stopped having the injection to conceive our children (and was very fortunate - it only took about a year). Now, due to painful menstration AND wanting adequate contraception, i commenced the injections once again. I have now been experiencing several side effects including headaches - everyday, joint pain, and i began menstrating again etc etc. Sick of whinging. So now i have stopped them for about two months. In that time i have been menstrating every week. One week off, one week on etc.
Have you experienced this? Any suggestions? Doc is at a loss and i feel like im back to square one. Any sites you can suggest? It would be most welcomed.
