"i took this bc for a year. my main reason for taking was due to recurring ovation cysts that ruptured every month and it worked wonders. as an added bonus it did its job as a birth control and without any side effects. i had no weight gain no acne no babies and no cysts. i didn&#039;t lose my sex drive. and when i did stop taking it i was pregnant the second month after. so it didn&#039;t effect my fertility which is a huge thing for me considering i miscarried after being on depo for 6 months."
