Currently, the combination (estrogen and progestin) oral contraceptive pill (OCP) and condom are the most common contraceptive methods used by teenagers.1 In cases where women are at an increased risk of estrogen complications, however, progestin-only hormonal contra-ception is often prescribed as the method of choice. This practice applies to women who are breastfeeding or have an increased risk of forming blood clots as well as those who have experienced complications on estrogen-contain-ing contraceptives.2 One of the progestin-only methods, Depo-Provera (DMPA), was originally approved to allevi-ate endometriosis and certain cancers and is currently most commonly used as a contraceptive.3 More than 2 million women in the United States, including approxi-mately 400 000 adolescents, are using DMPA annually as of 2004.4The benefit of DMPA relates to the fact that it is (1) 99% effective at preventing pregnancy when used proper-ly; (2) requires only one injection every 3 months; and (3) offers extended protection due to the crystallized proges-tin that slowly dissolves into the bloodstream.2,3,5 According to James Trussell in his chapter “Contraceptive Efficacy” in Contraceptive Technology: Nineteenth Revised Edition, “The typical failure rate of DMPA is 0.3 per 100 woman-years, which is comparable with that of implantable con-traceptives, copper intrauterine devices (IUDs), and surgi-cal sterilization.”6 Although the condom is the only meth-od that offers protection from transmission of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and is 98% effective when used properly, prescribers tend to rely on hormonal meth-ods that are less dependent on users’ compliance.6
While Depo-Provera, or depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA), is highly effective at preventing preg-nancy, mounting evidence suggests that its side effects may have a negative impact on long-term health. Together with mood changes, weight gain, menstrual irregularities, and delayed return to fertility, recent data indicate a correlation between DMPA use and an increased risk of fracture and HIV infection. These results have intensified concern about whether the ben-efits of DMPA outweigh the long-term risks. This paper reviews the health implications of DMPA and recom-mends alternative contraceptive methods that may have more favorable outcomes.
