Does anyone know anything about this, or know anyone who as experienced the results of this? Is it dangerous to my feminine organs? Should I switch back to the pill?

 My doctor said it would be good for me, since I have a lot of benign cysts in my ovaries. The birth control makes them go away. The shot works wonders, but if it will strongly reduce my ability to have children one day, I think I'll get off of it.

Discuss.

If it's only temporary, then I don't mind. I just don't want to be making a choice I will regret in the future.

Yes, you can. If you decide to become pregnant, the first step is to stop receiving doses. After the effect of the last dose of Depo-Provera had diminished, 83% of women got pregnant at some point within a year. This number is similar for women who did not use any form of birth control. Eighty-five percent of women who did not use birth control conceived within a year.

So, when you stop using Depo-Provera, you will return to your underlying level of fertility. But if your goal is to become pregnant within the next year, Depo-Provera is not recommended. Being able to get pregnant after using Depo-Provera has nothing to do with how many shots you've had. Whether you've had 1 dose or 20, it's the same. For some women it takes more time. And for other women, it happens faster. "

Well I would be sceptical about those birth control pills weather there's proven or not proven facts of it affecting fertility. Regular hormonal intake affects your body and mind weather you want it or not.

This is a relief. I still will probably get more information on it though. Considering that is by Depro Provera's website it may be a little biased. Perhaps I will look for a forum of some kind. I'm sure that if a woman can't get pregnant because of birth control, she will want to talk to others.

bad thing about the shot is that u have to take calcium, too. it rots ur bones.
