What Is Depo-Provera?

Depo-Provera is a hormonal contraceptive administered by injection every three months. It contains medroxyprogesterone acetate, a synthetic progestin that prevents pregnancy by suppressing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus.

  • Bone density loss,
  • Weight gain,
  • Irregular bleeding,
  • Mood changes,
  • Headaches, and
  • An increased risk of meningioma.

A 2024 study published in the British Medical Journal found that women who used Depo-Provera for more than a year were five and a half times more likely to develop meningiomas.
