Depo-Provera injection and positive mood

This has been great for me helped regulate my moods no longer huge crashes i get around periods. Also it has completely stopped my periods which were heavy and painful, I get the occasional period pain leading up to when my injection is due but they are very very mild and don’t really effect me.

Being on the injection has changed my life. After years of misery I finally feel like myself again. My mood has almost completely stabilised and my mental health has never been better. Physically my body has found it great too, I no longer find myself exhausted from heavy periods and my boobs have even gotten abit bigger which has been a big plus. I feel like a person again after going on the injection, After years of my hormones controlling my life I no longer feel crazy, I have control of my life again.

After being pregnant with our first child, due to my BMI & hypertension at the end of my pregnancy I was not allowed the combined pill. So after the discussion with my GP the next best thing for myself that I was willing to try was the Depo (injection). Firstly I hadn't even had my period after giving birth which didn't help, I felt like a complete mad women (understand we just had a baby) no libido, very on edge/sensitive to were I would be snapping multiple times a day. I just didn't feel like myself & I had to fight my drs to come off the injection. Now I just monitor my periods though an app and when having sex we use a condom
