PITTSBURGH, Dec. 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- An observational study1 published in the British Medical Journal found that people who have used progestogen-based hormones, like Depo-Provera®, are at a substantial increased risk of developing meningioma. Another study2, published in the medical research journal Cancers, confirmed this finding.
If you or a loved one have used the Depo-Provera® shot, an injectable contraceptive, it’s crucial to be informed about its potential risks. These alarming new studies link the Depo-Provera® shot with a significantly increased risk of developing meningioma, a type of brain tumor. Meningioma can lead to serious health complications and can even be fatal.
If you have used the Depo-Provera® injectable contraceptive or one of its authorized generics and have been diagnosed with a meningioma, you may be eligible for compensation.
