Hi all, I just wanted to ask if anyone else who Uses/has used the deprovera contraceptive injection had trouble losing weight while on it?
Ive used the depo before and had no bleeding or weight gain. Had my daughter in December and as I got pregnant on the pill and amnover weight my contraceptive options are fairly limited- but ive been told im not to have anymore children due to bad heamorraging (sp) ( i lost 4 litres of blood due to placenta acreta)
Anyway after having dd I was a stone heavier than pre preg. That stone came off a couple of weeks after birth so I was really pleased that I could start from where I left off before pregnancy.
I had the depo at my 6 weeks check and am having it every ten weeks due to be overweight. I have experienced constant bleeding for 20 weeks now and am feeling awful on it.
I began sw 5 weeks ago and am sticking religiously to the diet and getting exercise, but am yet to see 'big losses' as I have previously with ww.
My hubby is losing really well so I know sw works and I have lost 16lbs and wi tommorow so am doing well but have always experienced bigger losses when first starting a diet- i dont want to sound ungrateful because im really pleased with what I have done so far, but with a 1lb loss last week and a sneeky peek showing the same sort of loss for this week I wonder of the depo is hindering me a bit? Previously I have had constant 3-5 lb losses for the first few months. Forgot to mention that I regained the stone within 5 Weeks of beingnon the depo but wasnt being atall good so could have been my own fault!
Im going to come off the depo and suppose I will just have to try the mini pill again and hope It works- it had worked for beat part of 10 years but i took some sy johns wort and wonder if thats why I fell pregnant?
Hope that all makes sense and I dont sound like a complete moany mimper lol
