Depo-Provera & Brain Tumors

Depo-Provera & Brain Tumor Mass Tort Litigation

Carabin Law is actively reviewing claims involving Depo-Provera, a long-acting injectable birth control, after studies linked its active ingredient to an increased risk of brain and spinal tumors, including meningiomas.

Women who used Depo-Provera report life-altering diagnoses, neurological complications, and invasive surgeries. Lawsuits allege that the drug’s manufacturer failed to adequately warn patients and healthcare providers about these risks, despite emerging scientific evidence and international warnings.

What Is Depo-Provera?

Depo-Provera is a hormonal contraceptive injection containing medroxyprogesterone acetate, designed to prevent pregnancy for approximately three months per dose. It works by:

  • Suppressing ovulation
  • Thickening cervical mucus
  • Altering the uterine lining

In addition to contraception, it has been prescribed for conditions such as endometriosis and abnormal uterine bleeding.

Meningiomas and Reported Side Effects & Injuries

What Is a Meningioma?

A meningioma is a tumor that forms in the meninges, the protective layers surrounding the brain and spinal cord. While many grow slowly, they can still cause serious harm, often requiring brain surgery, radiation, or long-term monitoring.

Symptoms vary by location but frequently include neurological deficits that interfere with daily life and employment.

Reported Complications Include:

  • Brain and spinal tumors
  • Severe or persistent headaches
  • Vision changes or vision loss
  • Memory impairment and confusion
  • Seizures
  • Speech difficulties
  • Weakness or numbness in limbs
  • Hearing or balance problems

Even tumors classified as “benign” can cause devastating neurological damage due to pressure on vital brain structures.
