Birth Control and Post Nausea

[Guest guest]

I read in the manual that patients who take the depo-prevara(sp?) shot (birth

control) experience post nausea. What does that mean? Does this mean right

after the surgery or for a period after the surgery?

Dr. R does not recommend this form of birth control. He recommends barrier

methods. Because I did sign the no sex in exchange for surgery agreement (only

kidding) pregnancy is not a concern to me. (Real reason is I'm old)...but I did

tune in to what he said and it was clear that many methods will no longer work!

Maybe one of the younger girls, to whom this is very important, can answer you.

I was receiving depo shots prior to surgery and didnt experience any

nausea. I didnt continue receiving them after surgery being that they

are unreliable and not recomended as a form of birth control lollowing

surgery. Im not sure how long after surgery it would be safe to resume

using depo as a form of birth control.
