PfizerDepo-Provera Information
Depo-Provera is a contraceptive which is administered as a shot to prevent pregnancy for up to 3 months. While it is just another form of contraception, it is very important for us to know the benefits and risks involved in using this drug.Description of Depo-Provera
Depo-Provera is a hormone which is similar to progesterone. Progesterone is a hormone which is produced by the ovaries. It is a shot given in the arm, hip, upper thigh or the stomach. This hormone injection can prevent pregnancy for up to 3 months after getting the shot.Advantages of Depo-Provera
Depo-Provera shot is given once-in-three months. It does not show visible signs and therefore you can keep it private. It also does not require you to have any supplies at home. Depo-Provera cost is not very high and the drug easily available on order. You just need to visit the clinic every three months for your next shot. It is a non-invasive procedure and therefore the treatment doesn't take too long.Administration and Treatment of Depo-Provera
Depo-Provera contains synthetically produced progesterone and no estrogen. Once the Depo-Provera shot releases large amounts of progesterone into the system, it prevents the ovaries from releasing eggs. It then thickens the cervical mucus and changes the lining of the uterus. This makes it difficult for the sperm to enter the uterus and if it does, it cannot survive in the uterus. All these changes together stop fertilization and thus prevents pregnancy.Safety and Precautionary Information
