What happened
Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate) is an injectable birth control given every three months. Peer-reviewed research has associated prolonged use with a significantly elevated risk of meningioma — a tumor that grows on the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. While often non-cancerous, meningiomas can cause vision problems, headaches, seizures, and memory loss, and frequently require brain surgery or radiation.
Who may qualify
- Received Depo-Provera or depo-subQ provera 104 injections (typically two or more)
- Were later diagnosed with a meningioma (brain or spinal tumor)
- Diagnosis is supported by imaging or pathology records
