The History Behind Depo-Provera Lawsuits
Depo-Provera, a long-acting injectable birth control approved by the FDA in the 1990s, has been a popular choice for women seeking contraception. However, recent studies have unveiled alarming side effects associated with its long-term use.
A groundbreaking study published in the British Medical Journal in March 2024 revealed that women using Depo-Provera were 5.6 times more likely to develop meningiomas compared to those who had never used the drug. This revelation has led to a surge in Depo Provera shot lawsuits across the United States, as women seek justice for the harm they've endured.
Health Risks Linked to Depo-Provera Use
The Depo Provera lawsuit 2024 focuses on several severe health risks associated with the contraceptive:
- 1. Meningioma: These brain tumors can cause serious neurological damage, often requiring surgery and long-term recovery.
- 2. Severe Migraines: Some women experience persistent migraines even after discontinuing Depo-Provera.
- 3. Neurological Impairments: Long-term use has been linked to cognitive dysfunction and memory loss.
These health risks form the foundation of many Depo-Provera lawsuits, as women seek compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial toll of these conditions.
