Depo-Provera, a contraceptive injection containing medroxyprogesterone acetate, is not directly linked to causing cervical dysplasia. However, some studies suggest that long-term use of hormonal contraceptives may influence the risk of cervical changes, particularly in women with persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infections. Regular cervical screenings and HPV vaccinations are recommended for women, regardless of contraceptive use, to monitor and prevent cervical dysplasia. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

The injection contains synthetic progesterone and no estrogen. It is usually given in the the arm, hip, upper thigh, or abdomen, delivering a high level of progesterone into the body. Depo Provera stops the ovaries from releasing eggs. Depo Provera causes the cervical mucus to thicken and changes the uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to enter or survive in the uterus. These changes prevent fertilization.
The Depo-Provera birth control shot contains the hormone progestin, which works by preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus. This can lead to hormonal changes that may cause side effects such as irregular menstrual cycles, weight gain, mood swings, and changes in libido. Over time, some users may experience a decrease in bone density due to reduced estrogen levels. It's important to discuss these potential effects with a healthcare provider before starting the shot.
