I have just replied to 4 other threads regarding depo. I would advise going back to these various threads (you can find them by the word `Depo`). Yes, it does play with your hormones and I have finally determined to get off of it after 4 years. I started when I was 22 and am now 26. Please do read these threads. I am learning alot more than I knew in the beginning.

Just to let you know. I recieved the shot in 2004 after my second son was born. I stayed on the shot for about a year. It made me very irregular and gave me alot of problems. Even after I quit taking the shot my problems wouldn`t go away. I ended up having to get a hysterectomy and I blame it all on the depo shot.
Just make sure you check into everything about it. Talk it over with your doctor. I heard it can also make it harder for you to get pregnet when you decide to have more kids.
