I have the same problem every time. The first time I used it I did smoke but the second time I didn't smoke any thinking that could be the cause. It definitely was not. I still lost a ton of weight. My doctor said it definitely is a side effect. She also said ppl that have this side effect are more likely to suffer from calcium loose (another side effect) they put me on a high dose of calcium supplements. Ladies make sure you take calcium pills.

I started depo shot and love the few pounds I have lost. Any man that makes a big deal over your body is not a keeper. Women's bodies change and change and nobody keeps there shape forever. A keeper loves who you are and only expresses concern if it's effecting your health.

I have been using the Depo for over ten years and have experienced weigh loss as well. I love it, no period and no weight gain. This is rare since it does cause weight gain in most women. The downfall for me is it kils my sexual drive. But other than that, I love it.

Hey so I was on the depo shot for 2 years & lost 12lbs in the first couple of months as well. My diet was the exact same before, during, & after I got off. I started the pill & gained about 25lbs (with the same diet) so I know it was the depo. My doctor never mentioned anything about my weight loss so I'm assuming it wasn't an issue that needed to be addressed. Your doctor would have probably said something if it was an issue to be concerned about. I am now back on the shot since a week ago, so I'm interested to see if I'll end up losing weight again.

I just got the depo shot 2 weeks ago, I don't know if I've lost weight since I don't keep track, but I've completely lost my appetite. Literally started crying and shaking because I hadn't ate anything all day and couldn't even get a sandwich down.
Not sure if this birth control is for me. I feel like I'm in a bad place.
