Depo is just about the most reliable form of hormonal birth control there is, largely because of there is far less room for human error. I mean, how hard is it to remember to get a shot ONCE every THREE months?? It's so much easier to forget to take a pill every day.
BUT, the side effects are definitely a bitch. I stopped taking it a while ago and will NEVER even CONSIDER getting on it EVER AGAIN.
Also, Depo alone doesn't prevent STD's in any way. You need a condom for that, each and every time. Have you discussed your sexual histories? Had STD tests? You never know, zxello... please be careful.
