"my dr. suggested it  after my 3rd child,so i decided to get it. i missed the first period after taking the shot, but started for the second one. i&#039;ve been bleeding for a month straight now. its increased my appitite, making me gain 20 pounds in 2 months.i&#039;ve recently started working out so i&#039;ve been trying to loose it. i&#039;ve never had an acne problem, but now my face breaks out terribly too. i&#039;ve been moody, with crazy head aches. 
it is a hormone. so obviously it&#039;s going to have some hormone related side effects. read the pamphlet , check out reviews... remember it&#039;s an injection of hormones into your body, doctors don&#039;t know exactly what the side effects you&#039;ll have , if you have any.basically you&#039;re a human lab rat.
