Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone) as a contraceptive
May 1997
The HPB just approved using Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone) as a contraceptive...after many years of debate about its safety.
Depo-Provera works by inhibiting ovulation. It's slightly more effective than oral contraceptives.
It's also more convenient...just one injection every 3 months.
