What vitamins do I need to take while on the depo shot?

I just got my depo provera shot today and the doctor recommended to take vitamins. I don't know what the two vitamins are. She recommended taking calcium and something else. It was either potassium or magnesium? HELP?

Will taking prenatal vitamins while taking depo provera injections make the injection less effective?

My girlfriend gets depo-provera injections. She wants to take prenatal vitamins to stimulate hair growth. Will that make the birth control less effective, or are the progesterone levels still too high for the vitamins to make a difference? Basically what I'm asking is if I should start pulling out once she starts taking them. I don't want to ask her because I don't know if that is a stupid question, or seem selfish.

Need serious weight loss help?

I am 21 years old when I started college at 17 I was 132 pounds, but this is more than the freshmen 15. I am now 181 pounds during my 4th year of college, the thing is I live so much more of a healthier lifestyle. I never worked out in high school, NEVER ate breakfast, we had off campus lunch so i ate fast food or processed food every day, and never did any physical activity and I was rail thin, im 5'8 by the way. Once I noticed the weight gain I tried everything I eat breakfast daily, i eat healthy for the most part, no fast food I work out at least 3 times a week most of the time more, my school just opened up a state of the art gym I do yoga, cardio, "butts and gutts" and weight training, i take vitamins im not a smoker and I have seen no results. I even tried a boot camp last summer I paid 0 did a meal plan and worked out with a personal trainer m-f for a month and didnt lost a pound, Ive actually gained 10 pounds since then, everyone else in the class saw results. Its so frustrating, when I wasnt working out and eating like crap i was thin, now I wake up at 7am and work out and do everything textbook to lose weight and the scale keeps rising! My theories. I was on depo provera but its been over a year since ive been off it with no weight loss and i was also on lexapro but again its been atleast a year since ive taken that medication and didnt see any weight loss after I got off the medication. Am i doing something wrong? What are some reasons why I just can't seem to lose weight? Could it be the medicine, if so how long does it take to get it out of your system? Any advice would be great ive serious spent so much money on gym memberships, personal trainers, diet books, green tea supplements all with no results I do know what to do..
