5-20 pounds. I didn't gain any, but when I got off, I lost ALOT.

I gained a little bit of weight. I was on it for two years. I gained maybe ten pounds at the most.
Some people don't even have that effect. It's different for everyone...
I know one of my girlfriends grew a happy trail down her stomach.
Sprouted like...three chin hairs...and has hair on her toes now from it...
It really differs from person to person.

I started the depo shot 1 week ago and they told me that I had to wait 24-48 hours before having unprotected sex.

I gained a lot of weight during the time I was on the shot and I wonder if it was the shot or my sedentary lifestyle, y'know? Thanks & +6

I'm not sure. Too much chocolate syrup in er, bed? just kidding. I never understand how exactly medications can make someone gain weight.

*lol* I've heard so many women blame their weight gain on the shot so I was a bit confused if it were something that could happen.

It can. many have. It says so in the drug fact sheet as a side effect I believe.
