Medroxyprogesterone
"I've been on Depo for about 7 years.  My doctor never told me that I shouldn't be on it for so long, but others have.  I would have rated it a 10 because it stopped my period. I would get occasional spotting like once a year. WONDERFUL! Also, it's easy to remember to schedule your appointment every three months - 10 minutes in and out of the doctors office.  My insurance covered the shot and everything is good there. However, I cannot lose weight. No matter what I've tried. I can't get rid of it and I blame Depo for that. Also, I'm nervous about the decrease of my bone density. So I am now looking to go to Implanon and hope for the better."
