"effective and not disappointed. after the first 3 weeks on the shot i had heavy period for almost 20 days, but after that absolutely no period, no cramping, spotting, nothing! some weight gain but i&#039;m successfully burning that off. the only downside is the depression and anxiety, but those are occasional. they only happen within the first couple weeks of taking the shot and i just got my third dose. love it but it&#039;s not for everybody!"
