"had i seen this blog years ago i would have given the depo shot a 10+ rating. i loved it! i tried a few other bc methods prior to getting depo years ago and didn&#039;t care for any of them. finally when i first found depo i loved it. no periods, no side effects. everything was great. i too a break from depo for about 3 months and then when i got my first injection again (about 1 and a half months ago) everything went down hill. i got it while i was on my period and then 3 days later i stopped bleeding then about 2 weeks after i started spotting which lasted a week, now it&#039;s been almost 3 and a half weeks and i&#039;m still bleeding i&#039;m constantly tired because of the lack of iron from bleeding for so long.  i won&#039;t be getting the second injection!"
