Question
my daughter is on the depo shot  she has the medication but cannot afford someone to give it to her can i give it to her and tell me how to do it

Answer
I don't recommend this because I think it should be a professional doctor. I don't recommend that she do the depo shot and that she find another birth control method. There have been many reports from women about short-term and long-term side effects and risks to her health. Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and we can talk more about options.
