I was on Depo for 6 months, and it actually increased my sex drive. I just recently had to stop using it because it made me super moody.

I hope someone can give you some answers.

Hi,

I used Depo for four years and I also had decreased sex drive, along with weight gain (20 lbs.). I went off Depo last April because my dh and I wanted to have another baby. When I went off it, my sex drive came back. I feel better now that I am off it and take bcp.
