I was on Depo after I had my son, they gave to me almost right after I delivered and I bled for about 4-5 months. I was then on it for 2 years and experienced extreme weight gain, and also eventually stop having periods. I'm not sure how Depo can relate to PCOS though and what effect it would have on it. I look at these posts for my Mom, and by the way, they have helped her SO much!! All of you are wonderful and supportive of each other. I relay any information I get on here to my Mom whose been struggling with PCOS. You are all incredibly strong women and I admire you very much.
