After years of severe problems, difficulty working a police shift when changing every 15 minutes sometimes when really heavy I finally was able to get it under contol.

I do ahve low thyroid function, when young most times I did not have any but once or twice a year. THen the whammy hit me after 30 yrs old. I suffered so bad.

In 2000 I was scheduled to have a hysterctomy, but my Dad was very ill, I had just been in the car accident so we tried depo provera. I have had no side effects, no periods, I do ahve my tubes tied and I am now 52, so hopefully this is the last of my concerns.

The only recent trouble I ahd and my daughter on Depo, the generics have breakthrough bleeding, if bleeding that means ovulating, so I don;t think there is coverage for birth control.

I tried getting the shot every two month instead of three months, but still have break through and it is annoying being unpredicable to when I will have break through.

Butm the provera is an ecellant option for me,
