Of course, using condoms is the only way to
protect yourself against HIV/AIDS or other
sexually transmitted diseases, but make sure
you're also as protected as possible against
pregnancy. That's why more women than ever
are choosing Depo-Provera-it's 99.7% effective
when administered on time every 3 months.
Depo-Provera doesn't protect you from HIV/AIDS
or other sexually transmitted diseases.
Some women using Depo-Provera experience
side effects. The most common are irregular
periods or spotting. Many women stop having

periods altogether after a few months and some
may experience a slight weight gain. You shouldn't
use Depo-Provera if you could be pregnant, if you
have had any unexplained periods, or if you have a
history of breast cancer, blood clots, stroke, or
liver disease. When using Depo-Provera, there
may be a possible decrease in bone density.
Depo-Provera is not only one of the best ways to
protect yourself from pregnancy, it's also one of
the simplest. Ask your health care professional if
prescription Depo-Provera is right for you.
