Official Depo Thread

I think mine was from CVS. You don't need the applicators. We just used it as normal.

Well I got some good news yesterday. My three blood test results from last week came in and they showed that I am in deed ovulating and my fiances SA came back and he's good too. I still have no fertile cm whatsoever so on to the next test.

 

[sherylb]

Not even watery? That's also fertile. Maybe the timing has been off?

 

[missjenn]

There might be like one day a month that may come close...but just a smidge...like not dripping wet...just clear...and feels and looks wet...not watery enough to drip thats for darn sure.

 

[missjenn]

And I check every single day and multiple times throughout each day.

Thank you! It is not easy, but I so want a baby girl have since the beginning!

 

[sherylb]

You know, I felt the same way. I got lucky that I got her first and now I don't feel like we need a second one. I always thought I wanted two but I never realized just how much work and stress it is.

hey girl sorry i have been such a stranger been going through alot with school its taking up all my time but just wanted to give you guys an update and my little excitement for this cycle. i have been off depo four months now and i just started af on the 19th and guess what? it was a 31 day cycle. and the one before that was 50 so im am super excited. before depo i was on a strict 28 day cycle by i dont even mind the extra three days lol ill take 31 over 50 any day. still not currently actively ttc but i am paying attention to my body and tracking my cycles.............

how have you ladies been? have i missed anything?

[sherylb]

Tracking while you are figuring it out instead of ttc is less stressful anyway.

My daughter's 1st bday party is in 3 weeks

 

[genesismarie]

How exciting! My son turned two not too long ago in august. I'm sure you have big plans....
Yes i was totally stressing myself out TTC right after depo seriously my hair started to fall out I wasn't eating and it was putting major strain on my relationship. So ill probably give it to the six month mark

 

[sherylb]

Yikes, that's a lot of stress for something that can only happen one day a month on a good cycle. Take care of yourself!

 

[genesismarie]

will do girl thanks

Time on depo - 3 months
Depo ran out - oct 15th
No AF yet

 

[Bumpbananas]

2 depo shots only, last shot 6 February 2012, irregular periods between 29-35 days each time.... Ten tons of symptoms since coming off including half a stone weight gain, massive mood swings, hot sweats, stomach cramps and bogus pregnancy symptoms..

recent scan,opks and bloods from dr confirm that though I am having periods I'm not ovulating!!! What a waste of last 6 months efforts in trying to conceive!!

I really am angry about depo and side affects its had on me and believe it should require further research on withdrawal side affects.

Good luck ladies least the first page of this thread show it gets out of the system.... Eventually...

 

[Bumpbananas]

will do girl thanks

I really and truly believe that this may potentially be a side effect of depo withdrawal I mean the stress... I never suffered before I came off and now suffer with intermittent anxiety.. Whilst waiting for dr support I am taking b12 and b6 in equal proportion, agnes castus, epo and having acupuncture... Don't even know if it's working but willing to try anything to help myself.
