NEVER USE DEPO-PROVERA I believe the Depo-Provera sky-rocketed me into estrogen dominance and/or pre-menopause. Since taking that ONE Depo-Provera injection, I have had ovarian cysts, endometriosis, cellulite, uterine fibroids, increased facial breakouts, hair loss, uncontrollable weight gain, follicularis on my arms. I have never taken ANY form of birth-control since. I tried to get pregnant for over a year, three years ago.
