Fat

I also wouldn't touch Depo-Provera with 10-foot pole! However since the implant was removed 35 weeks ago, I can't really believe that's the cause of ther sudden weight gain although some rebound coming off birth control is normal. Are you using anything now for birth control offtapper???

"The main function of Progesterone is to support the developing fetus. Conversely, the function of Progestin is to prevent pregnancy....."

Looks like a bit of semantic juggling to me. Progestins merely convince your body that you are already pregnant so there is no need to menstruate or ovulate. You would get the same effect if you gave a similar dose of natural progeseterone. There are some subtle differences, but in terms of fat gain and bloating they all act like progesterone. The only reasons natural progesterone are used for birth control is that they are difficult to dose orally, and there's little money to be made from a pharmaceutical point of view. Otherwise I think you would find natural progesterones would be used a lot more.

""They're pretty much the same, except by a molecule or two..."

Semantics again. Testosterone is pretty much like testosterone enanthate, and winstrol is pretty much like DHT. The first two are pretty much interchangeable in the body, the second two are less not really the same thing at all......

And women are pretty much like men if you give them enough test

Nope. Aside from more muscle, they still act like chicks. Can't change that with any drug.

What happens if you give a guy estrogen and chop off his testicles????? Does he suddenly develop urges to 'shop-til-s/he-drops', gossip for hours on end and have fat days??? Or does he continue to have an inability to focus on more than one task at a time, and a pathological desire to watch sports on TV while channel surfing?

TO MS

In answer to your question yes I am using birthcontrol, still the depo shot. But I thought that everything would be going back to normal after the implant was removed, but this is not the case!

"I am using birthcontrol, still the depo shot"

Oh dear. Your poor body is probably totally confused by now. You see, winstrol is an ANTI-progesterone, and you're dumping it in on top of progestenic birth control. I have no idea what this combination of drugs could be doing to your body, but I strongly urge you to stop the winny (if you haven't already), AND rethink you birth control method. Depo provera really doesn't agree with many women, and if the dose is too high your body may think it's fully pregnant and make you store fat easily (as well as increasing hunger).
