Hi all.
Just a quick question about "time of the month", so men.. click off
I had the contraceptive injection back in October 2008, only the once, it was supposed to last 3 months in my system before i had to go and have my second injection. It has now been over 2 and a half years since i had that one injection, and since haven't had a period at all. I've had the smallest amount of "spotting" that has lasted for about an hour, for one day. Within the last 2 and a half years, i have only had that two or three times. Also, since having the injection, it was when i really starting pilling on the pounds, and have gained about 6 stone within that time. I guess my question is -- Is this normal? I have heard that gaining weight can have a dramatic affect on your period - and some people completely lose it for a while. I have seen a doctor, and she is doing tests, but it would be good to hear if any other ladies have had the same problem, or have experienced something close? Thanks.
