Abstract

PIP: The application of Depo-Provera in doses of 300 mg over a 6.7-month period and 450 mg over a 4.7-month period was studied. No failures were observed. The major complication was bleeding, although amenorrhea and weight gain were also noted. The percentage of discontinuation was 4.4% for 300 mg and 8.9% for 450 mg. 75% experienced irregularities and difficulties in bleeding.
