"i started using depo consistently about a year ago. a break down of my body: oily skin, gains weight easily, depression, and high sex drive.



on the shot i did not get any break outs, in fact, it helped with my acne a little. i also did not gain weight but lost some weight. periods got lighter at first and then stopped completely (which i loved). 



the cons were: mood swings, loss in sex, and vaginal dryness. 



i also did get my period back within the 3 months.



if i didn&#039;t like sex so much i would continue to use this form of birth control."
