A week ago i had the Depo contraceptive injection and am now beginning to worry that i made a wrong choice re contraception!
I have heard that it can cause weight gain (not sure if it's coincidental but i've been eating so much crap lately and seem to want to constantly eat!) and i've just read a few threads on here where it's caused depression.
I was on the copper coil but had it removed after about 3 years because DP and I could feel it during sex and also it gave me heavy periods, which really wiped me out for a day or two. Not good with a 3 year old and when trying to do exercise!
I've just lost 23lbs (with loads more to go!) and the last thing i want is to put it all back on again and/or have trouble losing more weight!
Please let me how you go on with the injection!
Thank you!
