Depro Controls My Pain

Hi, Ive been reading the posts and had to put my 2 cents in..i am 37 and have had 3 children and the doctors wanted me to have a hysterectomy because of fibroids..i had very painful periods and the pill was not an option because i smoke...ive been on depro for about a year..yes i have gained some weight but i now have no bleeding..no pain..i saw alot of posts from young women..i would Not recommend it for those who want more children but for my medical reasons it has been great...i refuse to have a hysterectomy and my doctor ..who is a woman also...says when i get to the meno pausal years my fibroids would shrink anyways...so for now im enjoying the benefits

Talk to a different doctor. I am 20, live in Toronto, My family doctor recomended a pill that is designed for people who smoke. Well, not designed. But he did say that some pills are geared for people who dont smoke and if you do smoke, it will defect the pill. If I were you I sould get another opinion. Again, I dont know if your in Canada and have access of the same products but here in toronto, there are pills geared for people who may smoke over people who dont. It does mean you are going to have to cut back on your smoking as much as pissible, because ... As doctors are, somking is the worst thing in the world and apparently it makes you the devil. It`s not sweetie. Thething is that you need to find a pill that is right for you.

Also, I took a pill the first time that was intended for anyone (smokers included) and everytime I lit up, I felt like throwing up. Yes I should have quit then, but I had to change my brands. A few times at that.

Hope I have been of assistance.
