I am contemplating going on the Depo instead of the pill as im not good at remembering to take tablets let alone remembering to take them on time. Ive done my research into the implant (all negative reports so far) & IUD's. Its alright reading on the NHS website about these things but they do not give you a real womans perspective.
What are other womens experiences of the depo?
What side effects did you get & are they any different from that of the contraceptive pill?
How long were you taking it for & if you came off it, how long did it take for your periods to return?
If your periods took more than a year to return, did you need any assistance from a GP to help them return? (Ive heard being put on the contraceptive pill can help them return)
& also, has anyone found that it has made concieving after it difficult? A friend of mine has put her infertility issues down to the depo injections (shes been trying for 7yrs & has a mountain of other issues. I doubt depo is the cause of anything tbh but its best to ask!). I may want another child in 2-3yrs times an if I do, everything will need to be planned (this time!)
Any help an experiences would be a great help!
Thank you in advance!
