    Depo Provera Side Effects

    I started the Depo shot about a month ago. When I was in there, they told me there were no major side effects. It took me almost two months to get my period, I had all the craps and bloating, but no period. Then I noticed that my urine is very fowl smelling, it reeks, my boyfriend cant even stand it now. This did not occur until I got that shot. Has anyone had this problem with birth control?

      I had only one shot of depo...about one year ago and it was awful! I gained 10lbs in 2 months and wouldnt stop bleeding the whole time... my doctor advised me to stay on it and I said absolutely not! Afterwards I had to go to a gyn to stop my bleeding and heard the stories about women not being able to have children because of it. I would advise you to stop after this one shot... Stick to pills, I think they are much safer! Good Luck!
