I was first put on ortho tricyclene and it lowered my milk supply significantly, so i had to use something else. the shot is making me so hungry, but im not giving in, i eat healthy meals the way i used to. i havent bled yet at all, with me breastfeeding i may not. im so sorry about your experience and i hope the same thing doesnt happen to me ↑ |

Not to scare you but the depo makes it difficult to lose weight and it will be a year after the last shot you get before you are able to get pregnant. I have been off and on the depo for years and had a son and gained about the same amount of weight when I was pregnant. I got the depo July of 2005 and I am overweight. my advice excercise as much as you can eat good. consider a different form of Birth control. sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I hope this helps. there are other forms of Birth control that are safe to take while breastfeeding. ↑ |
