    Lightbulb Contraceptive injection help!

    Hey all!

    I was wondering have any of the ladies on this site ever had or do use the Depo Pravera contraceptive injection? Did you have any side effects, especially N and V?

    I just had my first shot of this drug today and so far feel ok *knock on wood* but my doctor did tell me that N and V can be side effects but they are among the rare ones.

    Nevertheless, I am a little scared and nervous

    I would love to hear your experiences/reassurances.

    Thanks so much ♥

    I had 4 Depo injections and absolutely loved it! I had no N or V. My periods completely stopped (Awesome!) until I had a concussion and needed steroids. I guess the two meds don't play well together and I had a period nonstop for 2 months. SO now I'm on loestrin :P My doc says once my periods normalize again I can try Depo again, so I'm hoping!

    Hi! Its a good choice! After my first one I did feel slightly nauseas but was completely fine! and like the other ladies my periods stopped for the duration I was on it, so yay! I do now have the implant though, which I must say, I prefer, only needs done once ever 3 years, and has the same effect, no periods! on both of these though I have seen my weight fluctuate, and more up than down! Hope it helps, good luck xXx
