WHEW! this shot did me in! It all started after i got my 3rd shot. I started getting hot flashes, nausea every morning like clock work at 1030-noon time, bloated every single day, constipated, not able to sleep i keep waking up in the night, night sweats (i would sweat around my neck at times and wake up in the morning and would be sweating in between my thighs, no period (which i am not complaining about, but right now i would kill for a period LOL), spotting, i just do want to do anything anymore, I use to go out with my best friend all the time, and now i just don't even care to go anymore, would get really hungry at night, and mild mild stomach cramps....
I called planned parenthood like 500 times to ask about my symptoms and they would tell me everything that it is the hormones in this shot that is causing all this madness!
Whatever you ladies do... do not self-diagnose yourselves because it is not healthy at all. I did that. I goggled all my symptoms and it seem that every symptom i was having was under something like diabetes or cancer... It was crazy!! So do not do that. if you feel bad call where you got the shot from and they will tell straight up if those are symptoms of the shot or not.
Also, do NOT get this shot. Please research a lot about something that is getting injected into your body. i didn't and look at me now. I am suppose to go back in like 2 weeks for my 4th shot, but I am done. I cancelled my appt. I cannot keep feeling like this. I was so much better than this until i got the depo shot. I have completely changed.
Ladies, this shot is not something to play with, or just to get because you want to stop your cycles. I promise you it will change your life. I have heard maybe like 5 or 6 really good stories about this shot, and I have been doing some serious researching. That is not good at all. I mean, think about it... when you get off this shot you withdrawal from it! WOW! These are fake azz hormones getting injected into our bodies!
If you love how your life is going right now do get on the depo shot because you will straight up starting hating your life and everyone in it. I have met some really good women that have been on this or this is still on it. They tell me every day they wish they could just have their lives back. I want my life back too. There is a day when I think I do have my life back, and then BAM... here's some nausea or a hot flash or some kid of side effect ruining my FUKING day.
Yall have a great day.
