Your own hormones should decrease when you are taking the Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate). This synthetic hormone is close enough to what your system makes to shut down the natural production. The hypothalamus or the pituitary gland in the brain would stop releasing LH and FSH.
Spotting is a common side effect on Dpeo PRovera. Stress does not increase the risk of spotting on Depo Provera.
You are protected while on Depo Provera regardless of bleeding. As long as you get the shots on time, there's no decrease in protection just because you're having vaginal bleeding.
You may want to ask your doctor this question but nowhere have I read or been told that depression/anxiety meds and diet pills decrease the effectiveness of the depo shot. If you told your doctor you were taking those meds, I am sure he/she wouldn't have suggested the depo shot if it was known effectiveness would decrease. That is why it is good to get contraceptives from a doctor because they know your medical history and know exactly what is best for you.
No, amoxicillin will not decrease the effectiveness of the Depo-Provera to prevent an unintended pregnancy. Since the Depo-Provera shot bypasses the absorption phase in the gastrointestinal tract required by oral contraceptives, antibiotics such as amoxicillin will not interfere with the effectiveness of the Depo shot.
Getting "the shot" or Depo-Provera for birth control can increase your appetite, which can cause weight gain.
If you are on the Depo shot then when it is time to go back and get your shot they will tell you and you won't be able to get your shot.
Yes it is it is called the Depo-Provera a lot of people call it the Depo shot.
There are no special concerns with gettting pregnant while on Depo Provera or immediately after stopping depo Provera. It does not increase the risk of birth defects or other problems.
You can get the next Depo Provera shot as soon as ten weeks after the last one.
Is it safe to take phentremine when you have taken the depo provera shot?
Is there any way that alcohol could effect the way you act when you are one the depo shot?
Yes. Depo does not prevent UTIs. However, pregnancy is very unlikely on Depo.
