>>��No one told me the long term effects of the depo shot not even my doctor. I only had 3 shots then my husband and I decided we would like to have a baby. Then I found out it could take 6 months to a year to even have my period again and there is nothing the doctor can do you just have to wait it out. Its very depressing. If you want to have kids or you dont I would advise anyone not to go on the deprovera shot!!!!I have been taking the depo shot for 5 1/2 years. I am ready to stop taking it b/c I keep having different things happen to me. I really enjoy not having a period, though. But I can't afford to keep taking it and risk something major in the end. I was told that it took a while to get pregnant after taking the shot, but how long can you take it before you become infertile for life? That is my main question!
Thanks.
Mary
