Depo Provera: a profile of current users.
This retrospective study reviewed the current users of Depo-Medroxy-Progesterone-Acetate (Depo-Provera) from April to June, 1987, within the Family Planning Association of Victoria's Richmond Clinic. The profile that emerged from the study showed the clients were of average intelligence, well informed, had tried other methods of contraception, had a high number of unplanned pregnancies and chose to use Depo-Provera as other methods of contraception were unsuitable.
