Has anyone had an issues with having the depo after pp? I'm booked in for Wednesday for my first ever one, never used any form of contraception before apart from condoms.

Any advice would be welcome 😄

Hi Betty, I've not had experience on this one, but hopefully others will be able to share their experiences. Finding something that suits you can be important I think, so I hope your GP is a good resource if you were looking for more info, and that you can get all the advice you need from them. Feel free to let us know how it goes, as it might be good for others too. Take care, xx
