abnormal uterine bleeding
"The depo shot is very effective. I started it because any other birth control I tried to use I either gained weight, became moody, or had a period for a very long stretch of time. My doctor suggested this and it has worked very well. I used to have 10-14 day periods that were very heavy and I had severe cramps. With the depo shot, I have very light, 2 day periods. The only bad thing I can say is that my periods are very irregular. But in all honesty, for two days all I have to wear is a panty liner and I have no cramps. I would highly suggest this to people who are looking for a lighter, cramp free menstral cycle."
