Phentermine and depo provera

[lexina]

I was on the depo shot for 2 yrs up until march. I decided to get off of it thinking that it was part of my weight gain. I got on Phentermine in middle of May and got my first period right after. It wasn't too bad. Then I got another one about 3 weeks later and it was heavy and horrible and so I decided to get back on depo. I can handle weight gain, I can't handle the horrible cramps. Since I got the shot I haven't stopped bleeding. I have had a period for a month now. Its not as heavy but enough that I'm having to use femine products 24/7!
Anyway, my question is have any of you had any experience with depo and phentermine. I am so annoyed with all this bleeding. And of course now I can't reverse the shot and I am not ready to give up Phentermine because I've seen such great results.

I just got my depo shot but I've been on it for a long time. However there was a point that I went off it and the periods were excruciating! I think we just got to used to not having them. Anyway. I don't think it's the phentermine. It's just your body reacting to the shot. You got to admit you gave it quite a shock. If memory serves me right I bled heavily for about a month and then spotted for about another month.

Hang in there! BTW, you're doing a great job!

I have been on depo for about 7 years now and have taken phentermine twice before, each time for one year. Both times I started taking phentermine I would start bleeding as well. It wasnt bad and it went away after a couple weeks. I just started phentermine again 2 months ago and as soon as I started taking it I began bleeding again. This time the bleeding hasnt stopped and its getting worse not better so I do know what you are going through and I honestly feel it is a side effect. I have tried to research this but with no luck and I have asked the doctor that prescribes the phentermine and he said it wasnt but what else could it be. If you find out anything else regarding this matter please let me know. Thanks so much and good luck with it all.

I was on depo for 6 years and like you stopped getting the shot because I thought that it was contributing to my weight gain/ inability to lose weight-
I got my last shot back in August and didn't start Phen until Feb. I still haven't had a period (that's right.... no period in 9 months, well 6 really considering my last shot lasted for 3ish of those 9 months-)
I'm not a doctor, but if it was a side effect of the phen wouldn't that have caused me to get a period too
I guess I mean, I don't think it's the phen. I know a lot of women take phen to HELP with the excruciating periods that come with PCOS. But....... every body is different
