Description
Depo-Provera 150mg/1mL is a sterile injectable suspension containing medroxyprogesterone acetate, a synthetic progestin. It is indicated solely for the prevention of pregnancy and is administered intramuscularly. Each dose provides 150 mg of the active ingredient in a 1 mL solution. The product is intended for use under the supervision of healthcare professionals, with dosing scheduled every three months for effective contraception.
Medroxyprogesterone acetate prevents ovulation by suppressing the secretion of gonadotropins, including luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This suppression inhibits the maturation of ovarian follicles, thereby preventing the release of eggs. The medication thickens cervical mucus, creating a barrier to sperm penetration and reducing the likelihood of fertilization.
Depo-Provera is administered via deep intramuscular injection in the gluteal or deltoid muscle. Proper technique and adherence to the three-month dosing schedule are critical to maintaining its contraceptive effectiveness. This method is highly effective in preventing pregnancy, with failure rates lower than many other contraceptive options when used correctly.
