Hi

You take the pill everyday and then there is a space of a couple of days where you don't take any pills (this is where you have your period). Then you start a new pack in a few days so... with the pill you still get a period. You have to remember to take the pill everyday and it should always be around the same time everyday. You may find with the pill that you will still need some meds to help with the pain but it should decrease from what you are used too.

If you have the depo shot you take the perscription to the doctor and he injects the shot into your arm or your butt cheek and then you go back and do this every 3 months. In this time you aren't supposed to get a period at all but some people do get a bit though I myself never have. If you are using this as just a pain prevention instead of a birth control you can usually get away with getting the shot every 4-5 months instead of every 3. It takes a while to get your period started again after getting the shot. The longest i've gone in between shots is about 6 months. I find that it increases my appetite the first few days after getting the shots.

Good luck
