    Default Cranky Depo Bitch!

    Hooooly shit. Do any of you girls get really cranky for a few days after you get your depo shot? I wanted to get the implant but opted for Depo and saved my Implanon prescription for later (I have a year to fill it).

    I'm so flipping HORMONAL. I ran around chasing possums last night then cried when I couldn't catch one in the wires and this morning spent half an hour of my morning walk chasing lizards.

    Sheesh.

    I have never been on depo but my first round of birth control did this to me. (I was on the patch and now I am on a low dose hormonal pill.) I would have pms from hell. If you really feel it's not working for ya, change contraceptions.

    Oh it works FANTASTIC for me. It's only for a day or two I'm completely BUGGER RANDOM as hell. I've been known to have had my shot and be crying that night until I found a slice of pizza on the floor of a Shell and took pictures of it for a 'portfolio'. o.O; I'm just VERY weird for a couple days is all.

    I was planning on switching to Implanon in a couple months.

    my experiences with implanon are worse than depo. my doctor has removed as many as she has put in which = crap success rate.

    i was on depo for 5-6 years, (lied to myself that it was good for me), then i switched to implanon. now, i don't know about you, but i turned into a cry baby. add to this cystic acne, perpetual spotting and an ever expanding waistline and i had myself a situation.

    my best friend porked up 2 dress sizes on the stick and was depressed to hell. another gf got fat and psycho too. i don't know anyone who kept their stick.

    these days i don't mind if i get knocked up (being a married bird and all), so i'm enjoying not being on any of this synthetic, women's-body-wrecking crap. (rant rant rant)

    i didn't seem to resonate with any pills either, but in my humble opinion, the pill is the least impacting of all the contraceptives simply because you have more control. that said, none of them are going to make women feel 'normal'.

    i hated getting 'cute slaps' on the ass from my bf after getting my depo shot when he forgot i'd just had it. grrrrrrrrrr.

    I was a miserable bitch when on the shot. I almost got divorced because of the mood swings and rages. Too bad- that was th eonly problems I had with it- no weight gain, cramps, period, nothing.

    The pill makes me vomit. I can't take it. This works the best for me. I'm only asking about the first few days after the shot. I get it in my arm as well.

    I was jump outta my skin edgy and tense for 3-4 days after getting depo. I lost a lot of weight to, but all of my friends were on it to and they all seemed to gain some weight. I had one friend who cried all the time for almost a week after she got the shot.

    After I got married I got an IUD, no hormones and more effective than the pill. I loved it, completely stress free birth control that lasts for 10 years. Only had it removed because we are trying to have another baby, will definitely return to it after. (This is not good if you are with multiple partners though, as it makes it slightly easier to contract any STD's you may come in contact with.)

    Yeah, find a doctor that'll give an IUD to a 20 year old childfree woman and give me their number. I want Mirena. Hell, I want everything REMOVED but they won't do that because I might want kids someday. I have flipping cancer - if I got pregnant I have a high chance of dying AND killing the child (hormones from pregnancy cause it to flair almost out of control). But nooooo, we must keep your uterus for the BABY. And no IUD because you haven't had a BABY and it would hurt.

    Y'know what would hurt? A baby.

    Shit.

    I got my Mirena when I was 30 and my doctor had no problem with it. Granted that's older than 20, but I still have no kids and told her I didn't want any and she didn't blink an eye. She's in New Orleans so that's probably a little far for you to go though.

    Yeah, you are 30. That is fine. You have to be 25+ or have had kids to get the IUD from almost any doctor.

    I had a terrible experience with depo I bled the whole 3 months, major mood swings, and lost my sexual appetite completely. The only positive thing was the fact that I lost weight. I am now using the IUD which I have in the past and it was great. It is a liittle different this time around as I am spotting between periods and have extreme cramps during the menstrual cycle but my sex drive is back. Doctors will not give you an IUD if they know you have multiple partners due to the increased risk of STDs or have not had at least one child.
