I've developed migraine headaches i've never had before.

I've read a few articles now saying that depo causes bone density loss.

The fda has issued a "black box" warning on depo. I have taken it for six years and have experienced a few side effects--i have been off depo and all birth control for 1 year and 7 months. The warning is below. I would suggest looking into other forms of birth control and getting off depo.

Black box warning added concerning long-term use of depo-provera contraceptive injection
quote:
the food and drug administration (fda) announced today that a "black box" warning, highlighting prolonged use may result in the loss of bone density, will be added to the labeling of depo-provera contraceptive injection, an established injectable drug approved for use in women to prevent pregnancy.

Quote:
black box warnings are designed to highlight special problems, particularly those that are serious, and to give health care professionals a clear understanding of a potential medical complication associated with a drug. Black box warnings provide physicians with important insights as to how to prescribe a drug that may be associated with serious side effects in a way that maximizes its benefits and minimizes its risks
