>>��Hi, i know how you guys are feeling, before i decide to use the Depro vera, i had iregular periods and now that i am on the shot, i still have iregular periods.So now, i am thinking about descontinuing the shot sense it has done nothing to stimulate my period to make it come regularly. while on the shot, i went from a size 22 to about a size in any range from a 14 to a six teen. i have been on the shot now for 5 months now, and in that period of time, i was weighing in at 210 lbs, before i started the shot, now that five months have passed, i am weighing in at 180 lbs. I have been taking my shot on the regular. I went to get the shot to stimulate my period so that i would not get pregnat. i am sechuled to take it on the 21st of this month. i usulay get it on the 13 day of the third month that the shot is do in. But even though, i have to wait a longer time to get it now,i am still not trying to get pergnant. I had also got the shot because i was starting to get very active and i was looking for somthing that i could use to not get pergnant.i hated the feel of condoms, so i had to find something. so i went and got an anual check up and asked for birth control. i have a hard time swollowing pills, so i asked for the shot instead. i was also afraid that i would for get to take them. so anyways, i have been on the for 5 months, six if you count march. and on it i have lost about 8 lbs. in a two week period., have a very over active metabolism rate, lost a total of 30lbs in a six month period, have no type of appitate at all, and have loss tons o f sleep. i have also just gotten a period, after a few months of spotting in june and july, and a regular one in may. i had thought that i was pergnant, but the test came back negative all three times. so i was happy about that. i had just lost my job and everythang that came with it. so i was not looking forward to bring a baby into this world without that. because of the terminsie weight lost, my co- works, family and friends, all thought that i was taking diet pills to loose weight but i was actualy just useing the shot and walking alot. i had to use my feet as a transportantion device, so having a baby was totaly out of the question for me. i would never bring a baby into the world without being able to take care of it. and sense i do not belive in abortion, or adoption,i was happy when i heard the news that i was not pergnant. i had to take three test for me to belive it though. i finally did though. i had pains in my stomach, so i thought that i was maybe, but they say that i wasn't. but now that i am done trouble shooting the problem, i have gotton a really heavy period and a ton load of pains in my stomach and i am very buloated. the pains are so bad that i have to pop about three to four advil just to clam the pain down, which only comes back two ours later. i have now decide not to take the shoot or just lower my dosage. but i would not adivise someone who is not looking to have kids right now not to take this shoot ,it does so many thangs to your boby that you alone can not handle our control by yourself. i highly do not advise this shoot unless you are justlooking for a quick way to loose weight.


Your stomach pains might be from gall stones. I read an article in the August Women First magazine that said if you lose weight quickly (said crash diet but if you have had no appetite it might apply) the bile in your gallbladder doesn't contract and the bile can precipitate out forming stone.
