Does Depo-Provera stop your monthly period? 🤔
And if it does, for how long?

If you are using Depo-Provera or thinking of starting it, here are a few important things you should know 👇

🤔 Depo-Provera's a contraceptive injection, right? 😊 It often stops periods (amenorrhea) in many users, but it's not a guarantee 🚫.

- *Periods might stop*: Within 6-12 months for many, can be longer
- *Irregular bleeding*: Common initially, might settle down

Important things about Depo:
- Effective contraception (if given on time every 12 weeks)
- Might cause weight gain, mood changes 🤷‍♀️

- Fertility return can take months post-injection 🕰️

A mum was worried and asked…
Is it true that teething powder damages baby teeth?

And is it safe to use it with paracetamol?
What is the correct way to give it ?

Let’s talk 👇🏾

Teething powders often have ingredients like lidocaine or benzocaine, which can be risky for babies. Docs usually say no to these powders.

For teething pain, try these instead:
- Cold teether or chilled washcloth 🥶
- Gently rub the gum with a clean finger 🤲
- Paracetamol (if your doc's cool with it)
