"i&#039;m 22 and i&#039;ve been on the depo shot since i was about 16 or 17 so about 5 years now. i haven&#039;t had any side effects whatsoever. i don&#039;t spot to often only when its about time to get my shot again, which i think is pretty normal. my only concern is the osteoporosis. i am going to be going this next week to get a test done. it just worries me because i get all this negative feedback from people. i really don&#039;t want to be one of those. but i can say my sex drive is high, i don&#039;t gain weight, i don&#039;t get acne what so ever if anything it has helped. so all in all its a pretty positive experience."
