Depo-Provera® (medroxyprogesterone acetate injectable suspension) is a form of progestin hormone based birth control manufactured by Pfizer.
In 2024, the British Medical Journal published a study indicating that women who used Depo-Provera® for birth control for more than a year had a 5.6-fold increased risk of developing a tumor known as a meningioma.
Meningiomas develop in the layers of tissue of the brain or spinal cord. Meningiomas may impact the brain or spine by growing in size and pressing on the nearby tissues. This impingement on nerves and brain tissue may lead to headaches which may be worse in the morning, vision changes such as blurriness or double vision, memory loss, weakness, seizures, confusion, difficulty speaking, hearing loss or ringing in the ears, loss of smell, numbness.
