I beleive you do lose your period once on the shot. Before you decide to take the depo shot u should do a little research. I took it for 6 months....the first shot I was fine they second time I got the shot I got some serious side mental side affects...depression....anger. I'll also know a couple of women that got the shot as well and didnt like it so got of them. My personal opinion I wouldnt recommend the depo shot because i dont think there is enough research on and how it would affect a women in twenty years....

Hi, it depends on the person i had abit of spotting when i first started having it then after my second one it stopped.Though my friend also went on it and she continued to get her period the whole time on the depo.But apperently that only hapens to a small percentage of woman.
