i have been on the shot for like 6 months now and i was reading the information paper you get when they give you your prescription and it said that you aren't supposed to take it for more than 2 years because it can cause bone loss. It also said that i should take calcium and vitamin pills regularly to help decrease the risk of bone loss.
everyone i have known has taken it for like 4 years plus. up to like 7 years and they said they didn't have a problem at all with it.
should i really be concerned about this?Birth control and bone loss??
This information came out about a year ago regarding the Depo shot. So those women probably didnt know of this side effect when they began taking it. I wouldnt advise this birth control method to anyone!
