I also am on the depo. Tomorrow is my next shot. I also have found that it kills your sex life. I want to stop the depo but then what???????? Is the patch also "good" for endo? I've tried so many things but I bleed through it al. In june I'll be bleeding a full year.I'm tired of it I want it to stop . Would a hysterectomy be the answer?I don't know ,I just feel bad and I don,t want to fight any more.The summer is comming so I'll be looking forward to nice and sweating and bleeding. Can any body relate to me and let me know what might have worked for them? Thank you marrije --- Amanda <anonymous@obgyn.net> wrote: > As I said in a post last week I bled for 260 days
