I got the depo shot and my period hasn't gone away

@Katie I feel so gross and off and I've had the implant one what's the same thing as in the shot and it wasn't like this

I don’t know but I’d sign up for the class action lawsuit and see if you can get some $$ for the exposure and stop taking it! https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChcSEwiy_ri42NuKAxWlW0cBHYY4D1wYABABGgJxdQ&co=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsv64uNjbigMVpVtHAR2GOA9cEAAYAiAAEgId-fD_BwE&ohost=www.google.com&cid=CAASJeRoQWVAY0YG7m9Y8naFk417s4WUWr_FosoQV7UxiadyIyOdFGE&sig=AOD64_1CIPFLWesn4VyeObGkZuGIEzHpHw&q&adurl&ved=2ahUKEwjuhbS42NuKAxXyEFkFHeNJKAIQ0Qx6BAgeEAE

@Tiff what do you mean? It's a shot that last 12 weeks my next one due in March

@Katie what do you recommend ? Should I keep the shot since I haven been on any birth control since I was 20 now I'm 25 and it's just make body getting uses to it or switch to a different ones still I find one that works the best

Depo-Provera has been giving some people brain tumors later on and other serious health issues. I would not continue if that’s what you started taking! Drs are not up to date with lawsuits and sadly in the US lawsuits and horrible side effects do not spark any requirement to remove the product 😵‍💫, sometimes they have to remove temporarily but that often takes years if it even gets there.

@Tiff I'll stop using it and get a different bc

I did the depo shot and my period didn’t go away for 9 months.

@Katie Yes I read about 4 women who had public cases - 2 you’re referring to in that, but apparently that’s not where it ended, that’s just what is available to the public and they’ve had prior issues in the past and had things overturned back into the cycle of approval. You can still currently sign up for multiple additional lawsuits. If you look into the clinical trials of it it also gets sketchy…obviously not every person is subject to get a brain tumor, but there are cancer causing ingredients which to be fair are approved in a lot of vaccines and medicines, so we are use to rolling that off the cuff to some extent…but personally I try to avoid all of that. Some of our top cancers and even one of the top cause of liver failure in the US, quite literally killing people is aceteminophen….yet you can find 50 (pharmaceutical comany funded clinical studies) stating it’s “harmless” over time. I started it and stopped for this reason and now choose to avoid it all.

@Katie agreed - I don’t partake in most of those things and I think we should start shifting our thoughts on accepting it and get more ruthless on protecting ourselves. Especially as women - they quite literally don’t give a shit about our healthcare. To each his own ya know, some people really don’t care…I do, I know many other women do, but it’s definitely individualized to each persons views on that as a whole. I’ve literally gotten rid of all plastic in our kitchen, all lead containing cookware, don’t use a microwave any more or gas etc, we eat all organic/pastured. I make my own products and tinctures so I’m pretty crunchy lol.

@Justice damn that sounds horrible
