Please schedule an appointment with your physician.
Depo Provera is an injection of progesterone medication. It can stop ovulatio. But mostlly it causes a change in the inside of the uterus that makes it difficult for a pregnancy to grow in the uterus. It is very effective. Many people who receive depoprovera stop having a period or the periods become very light. The medication is repeated every three months. It can also be used in people experiencing heavy of painful periods. When they stop getting the depoprovera they can become pregnant it no using another method of birth control. Women like this method of birth control because they do not have to remember to do anything like take a pill every day.
