Thats weird that most people have issues with depo. I was on it for close to 5 years my doc saw no prob and I took calcium supplements. I never had a period while I was on it but thats how I wanted it.I wasn't sexually active while I was on it I was on it for complications from my periods. I only have 1 ovary as I had a tumor on one and it had to be removed. I experienced severe cramps to the point I was being hospitalized monthly and missing school. I also have polycystic ovarian syndrome and the depo worked wonders for me. My sis was on it though for 3 months and bled non stop the entire time. I loved it except I gained a ton of weight so I switched to Yaz a few months ago. I've lost a little weight and still don't have to deal with difficult periods. But my doctor said the way my body reacted to depo isn't very common.
