Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate injectable suspension) is a birth control medication used as one injection every 3 months. Interruption of hair growth or hair loss is among its reported side effects. You need to see your doctor to consider stopping this medication and discuss other methods of birth control. If you lost hair only as a result of this medication, you should expect to regrow your lost hair within 6 to 9 months after your last injection of Depo-Provera.

i was on the depo shot 7 yrs ago for about a year. I had massive hair loss and have still not regrown it!Now i’m thinking about charging the makers of Depo for hair transplants!!!!
Same here. I got off of Depo and as soon as I did I started noticing bald spots. They have not grown back yet.
