So I am a mom of a 11 month old daughter. I started the shot 1 month after having her and I had nothing but problems. So this month I started to take the pill (Junel Fe) I am starting my off week and don't know if I am still safe or should we use protection? I known the shot takes a while to get out of my system. Shit last time I got off the shot you took me a year and a half to get pregnant. I would really appreciate your thoughts for anyone who has used this birth control before.
