Is depo-provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) safe to take? i am afraid of infertility and hair loss.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Relatively: In the right person, Depo-Provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) has a long proven safety track. If you do go forth with Depo-Provera provera (medroxyprogesterone), there is a chance when you stop it, that it might take longer to get pregnant than other forms of contraception but permanent infertility isn't really an issue. Hair loss is associated with Depo-Provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) but it one of the more uncommon side effects and isn't necessarily permanent.
