Hooray for people who actually research medical procedures before actually getting them done!!
For the rest...should have Googled it.
You're a d**k, when you get a vagina then your opinion matters. Have a seat.
Do you disagree with my opinion?

She may be venting but she is 100% right! No vagina no comment
Do you have any idea how many male OBGYNs there are? :huh:
I'm the women's health liaison for my clinic. I don't know squat about vagineys.0 -
LOL .. I have to stop reading these forums!!! Its causing stomach fat by raising my cortisone levels :grumble:
I think you are taking all of this too seriously. Think Pink Unicorns, and take a deep breath!

Side effects from contraception methods affect everyone differently. Some are more common than others. The decision to have the depo shot over other contraception methods was made between her and her health care provider and no one else's opinions should have an effect on that, no matter what expertise their Google "research" gave them.0

I mixed up the "e" in one word and my punctuation sucks so sue me, am I writing a university paper here? . All I’m trying to say is she came asking a simple question and one man in particular got very sarcastic and snooty about it all. Thing is this person does this all day long, I’ve seen him in other forums doing the same thing. He’s a bully. I’m just calling it as I see it. Yes everyone is entitled to an opinion but why does it have to be mean and nasty? Were all up in arms about this bullying epidemic and here we are ADULTS doing the same thing. It’s not right.
Come here. I'll give you a hug and help you feel better. :flowerforyou:
^he really has a vagina. Don't let him fool you.
It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it's told.0 -
Its a birth control shot that EVERYONE reacts differently to. How on earth is googling it going to tell her how SHE will react to it?
if everyone reacts differently to it, how on earth will only asking vaginas on a message board yield better results?0 -
Thats right! people joined this web side for comradery and support. Not to be made to feel bad or silly about a question they've asked.
Could you please use the quote link instead of the reply link. It's very hard to figure out who you are talking to, and what you are replying to.0 -

I'm flattered that I seem to have made an impression on you, despite it being negative. It is true that I'm sarcastic and use dry humor often, but it's almost exclusively reserved for when obviously silly threads are started. I do not support or coddle people. I do, however, answer and help dozens of people per day with nutrition and fitness related advice.0 -

If my period disappeared, the last thing I would be worried about it getting it back, personally speaking. I would do dang near anything to get mine to go away forever!!! and ever and ever. Never once in my life have I wished I had a period, so I'm sorta lost on this whole subject anyway.0

And that’s great! That’s what people come here for. I just feel bad for people who are made to feel silly for simply asking a question. Yes she could have Googled it but that’s not always helpful. My personal experience with this particular birth control is not common and you wont find a lot of cases on Google. So I’m sorry, I just felt like there was no need for the sarcasm. You are entitled to post your opinion tho so carry on. Im not here to combat you Im here to show support to my fellow fat busters :happy: lol0 -

OP, in all seriousness, just talk to your doctor. I hope it all goes well for you! 0 -
To the OP:
The fact that you aren't having a period yet can indicate that your hormone levels are not yet back to normal. This just takes time--and how much time varies from woman to woman, and even at different points in the same woman's life (as you have discovered).
In the course of taking care of many women and dealing with multiple forms of BC and their myriad side effects, I would say that your experience is within the range of "normal" (or "common" if you prefer). If you were my patient, I would check some bloodwork for hormone levels, perhaps an ultrasound as well, and if all was normal would do a round of meds to trigger a period and see what happens after that.
However, unless you are trying to get pregnant (which can take up to 18 months to recover fertility after depo), the lack of a period does not likely indicate any physical problem. You are not having a period because you are not developing an endometrial lining (that's the stuff that sheds during your period). It's not like that lining is accumulating in you uterus for months and months--you aren't even making it. So the lack of a period is NOT harmful when it has been caused by hormone treatments.
Whether the lack of a period has any bearing on your weight--who knows. The hormone funkyness could possibly be contributing. In any event, keep exercising and eating within your parameters and you'll likely be fine. Oh, and I would recommend against depo in the future if you are unhappy with these effects. I have plenty of patients who are loving the fact that they aren't having periods (granted, they aren't the ones trying to get pregnant).0 -

Are you an NP (guessing from your handle)? What do you think of the idea of trying to help excretion of the thing along by exercising?0 -

Yes, I am. I really can't say in regards to whether exercise would help with the excretion (just because I haven't really studied that--sounds interesting), but if she is trying to lose weight she needs to keep up the physical activity. Certainly can't hurt matters.0 -
DAMN.. she has the right to ask whatever she wants in here!!!.. Let her be:grumble:
And this is a public forum. Everyone is allowed to respond as well.
we are here for SUPPORT... if I have nothing good to say in the forums Id shut my mouth, I wouldnt make feel bad someone just because I think I know it all. Period.0 -
