Actually, my doc pretty much told me I would hate Depo thanks to weight gain and death of libido. He recommended Mirena IUD, which is awesome. It does have like a slow-release low dose hormone in it, but it doesn't bother me like the pill did. Periods are much lighter and can disappear completely, but I still get mine. Best thing for me is not having to DO anything and still feeling sexy. Ask your doc. Also, why not insist on another doc if you don't like yours, it's your body.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18739705.post-1147873741085443162006-05-17T09:49:00.000-04:002006-05-17T09:49:00.000-04:00I'm with sweatpantsmom.I had very easy periods unt...I'm with sweatpantsmom.<BR/><BR/>I had very easy periods until I started taking birth control. I tried different kinds, but came to the conculsion that all those chemicals and synthetic hormones couldn't be a good thing.<BR/><BR/>I've not taken birth control for seven years and have been better for it.SuperMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00373722602201237644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18739705.post-1147871429614113652006-05-17T09:10:00.000-04:002006-05-17T09:10:00.000-04:00AM- hey sympathy works.

My wife decided to try that so that she wouldn't "forget" during the hectic schedule of getting married, honeymoon, etc.<BR/><BR/>She was so depressed over what it did to her, it nearly ruined our honeymoon (how? She was so upset about her body shape she did not pack a bathing suit for our honeymoon... In ARUBA).<BR/><BR/>3. Well there is no Number 3 here really because as sensitive a sould as I try to be, I couldn't even begin to tell you which way to turn next, since I could only tell you the wife went back to the "regular" pills (hormones).JayMonsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13591656867543587034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18739705.post-1147803468732314022006-05-16T14:17:00.000-04:002006-05-16T14:17:00.000-04:00I hated the Depo shot.

Good stuff (yes it has hormones I think) but that is the only thing that is good. And you can still be protected and take it out (you know, when you get busy)<BR/><BR/>Or tell him to perfect the withdrawal method :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18739705.post-1147801989546888062006-05-16T13:53:00.000-04:002006-05-16T13:53:00.000-04:00No advice.
