It all depends on your body. You will hear good comments and you will head bad comments from woman like me. I hated it to death. It gave me 3 month long non stop periods up until i was to next shot (DEPO-Provera) which would give me only few weeks of break from a period and then all over again. I hated it side effects when it came to sexual drive. I would be *orny but it wouldnt show, meaning i was experiencing vaginal dryness and i knew it was no other problem but BC shot side effect, because i got so fed up i went back to BC pills (Lo-Oval) and i am floating now like niagra falls. So no shot for me ever again. Hope it wasnt graphic and i wouldnt take my comment for what its worth because you may like the shot. It all depends on your body and how you was built....because as you will see from other comments.....in the end we all are absolutely different.

I forget that at one time there used to be two different kinds of birth control shots until Lunella (the second of two on the market at one time) was taken off the market.
As for Depo-Provera, I have refused it because of the risk of seizure with it as it relates to my case. I also found out from some others that doing the Depo-Provera can put one at risk for osteoporosis as there is no estrogen involved with this shot. I've also met some women who have ended up with a condition called vulvodynia because of the fact that the Depo-Provera dried them out due to the lack of estrogen.
I've met a few others that have gained weight while on Depo-Provera and then when they were ready to come off of it and did that they had a hard time losing the weight that they gained while on the medication.

my GF was on it and she never got pregnant, she gained about 90 pounds and we stopped having sex, I don't know how well it would work with sperm present, now that she switched to the nuva ring she's losing about 2 pounds a month with 5 days a week at the gym and eating next to nothing.

I take it. The only side effect it has on me is I flip from crabby to horny on the 1st day after.
