Many women wish they didn't have to
remember their birth control every day. If you're
one of them, you might want to know about
Depo-Provera.
Some of the benefits of Depo-Provera.
Depo-Provera is an injection you get from
your doctor or nurse, every three months. When
taken as scheduled-just 4 times a year-it's
more than 99% effective. So it's one of the most
reliable contraceptives available.
Depo-Provera has been used for many years
by millions of women in countries like England,
France and Sweden. And Depo-Provera is
reversible. Once you stop using it, you can
usually become pregnant within one year.
Depo-Provera from Upjohn is a prescription
product that costs about the same per year as
birth control pills.
But before you consider any birth control
method, you should discuss the risks and benefits
with your healthcare professional.
Some of the side effects of Depo-Provera.
Most women experience irregular or
unpredictable menstrual bleeding and weight
gain. With continued use, many women stop
having monthly periods, but your healthcare
professional can explain why this happens, and
that it is not a medical problem. Use of Depo-
Provera may be associated with a decrease in
the amount of mineral stored in your bones,
which m ay be considered among the risk factors
for development of osteoporosis.
Depo-Provera is not right for every woman.
Women with a family or personal history
of breast cancer, blood clots, liver disease, or
those who think they might be pregnant, should
not use Depo-Provera.
r
Remember, Depo-Provera does not protect
against sexually transmitted diseases.
But it does provide highly reliable birth
control you only have to think about 4 times
a year. If you have any questions or concerns,
talk to your healthcare professional.
