endometriosis
"I've been on depo for almost two years now and have not had a period since i got the injection. i no longer have the debilitating cramps that i would get each month which is a godsend. after i'm first given the shot, i have about 5-7 days of being a little more emotional than usual but it's usually due to my hormones being balanced and changing a little, but it just means a bit of crying and basically how i used to be emotionally before a period. i have noticed that some nights i wake up with a really extreme cramp out of nowhere, but i believe that that might be an issue that's more to due with my hormone levels etc. either way, depo has definitely spared me from weeks spent in bed because of the painful cramps!"
