No, Depo provera does not prevent any STD. It is only a form of Birth Control (preventing you from getting pregnant) -it's not a barrier. You still need a condom to protect you from STDs

Will medication for chlamydia stop it from occurring?

Taking tablets for chlamydia won't stop it from occurring. There is no immunity built up in your body against chlamydia; if exposed you may still catch it again and again. On the other hand...if you just got exposed, and took medication immediately for chlamydia, you will prevent chlamydia from continuing, even if you haven't yet had symptoms or a positive test.

Can you get chlamydia if you have an IUD?

The course differs for different people. If a woman has chlamydia when the IUD is inserted, the risk of PID is quite high. It appears that with the IUDs currently on the market in the US, the course is about the same as for women without IUDs. However, most women should avoid IUDs unless they're in a committed relationship, and should make sure she and her partner are tested before exchanging potentially infectious fluids.
