I actually LOST weight on the pill. All my friends warned me to watch out, that I'd gain 15 pounds, but the exact opposite happened. When I stopped taking it I gained some of it back though.

I have wanted to go on the shot but a few of my friends gained about 10-20 pounds on it so thats why I havent gotton the shot did any of you on the shot gain weight.

I am on the shot and I ***loooooove*** it. due to other medical problems, I've been on the pill since the age of 14. I just hate it, I'm always forgetting to take it or whatever. I much prefer the shot. Once every 3 months and they email me when it's time to get another one. I have gained no weight whatsoever nor have I noticed any other mood issues...

Used the depo-provera shot for about 8 years and loved it!!!!! Kept my endrometriosis under control, didn't have to remember every day, no period, not really sure if it had any impact on my skin because I have never really had much problem with breakout.

I've been on Ortho since I was 18 (I am 21 now) I had MAJOR acne from ages 12-18 that no over the counter or perscription medicine could clear up..I now have NO acne whatsoever.. Also, my mood swings are actually better on the pill, almost none at all.. PLUS, I have a regulated period because otherwise I used to never get my period which they have told me is bad because it means I may not be able to have kids.. The hope is that if I stay on the pill for 5 years I will have a regular cycle once I get off of it.. PLUS, I went from a small C cup to a large D cup since being on the pill with no weight gain whatsoever, just breast gain woohoo!! All my friends are on ortho and have had no problems either.. I HIGHLY recommned it.. Don't give it a bad name.. PLUS at my university, they are only 10 bucks a pack per month.. WOOHOO! Just my opinion..
