      Hindi masisira yung cycle mo. Norifam yung injectable na may mens ka parin.. Yung DMPA kasi mawawalan ka ng mens e.

    This is a helpful post for couple that into a family planning. Consulting a doctor is a must if someone wants to take this contraceptive because medicines has different effects to our body.

    I’d like to take pills or contraceptives to correct my hormonal imbalance but before doing so I need to see my doctor first.

      Hello. I got my first injection onnthe first day of my menses. Then 14 days later I bled a little lighter than my regular period but still more than the usual spotting. Anyway, will this disrupt the supposedly 28 day cycle? Or will my period still come on the 28th despite the bleeding on the 14th. Thanks.

    Personally, I am not in favor of invasive contraceptives. I hope those who do take them will stay safe.

    I took pills for a few months and stopped hoping to get pregnant.But I got pregnant after 4 years of marriage. This injectible is good alternative to pills though.

    never heard of that contraceptive until now. I’m glad i don’t have to take anything because i did a non-invasive procedure to prevent me from getting pregnant too. in other words i will no longer get pregnant

    Is there any side effects on you? Me too, I never take any contraceptives, it somehow had side effects and indeed just made me sick, but hoping not to get pregnant again though.
