depo shot and breastfeeding? Mirena?

Well... I've been thinking maybe Mirena isn't for me.. I found a Facebook page of all this complains of this form,of birth control where they have t have it surgically removed.. so maybe not a good idea for me? ? I've heard sometimes the body rejects it And that in can move.. idk if the size of the penis matters but if it does.. then he might move it.. ?? I want to try the depo shot. Anyone,tried any of these two? Can I still breastfeed with the depo shot? Do u bleed ALOT? How bad does it affect hormones? ?

Depo is an option, someone else told me they breastfed while on it and is under the" low dosage" weird huh? I thought it wouldn't be considered for breastfeeding. :) I would use condoms but eh sometimes can't help but not lol:c

You are only supposed tonuse low dose birth controls while breastfeeding. I don't believe depot is an option. You will have to talk to you doctor but I only got offered 2 low dose pills because I was breastfeeding. But they gave me horrible headaches so we just used condoms.
