With continuous use of Depo-Provera, there is less than a 1% chance of experiencing an accidental pregnancy. This rate assumes that no shots are missed. Depo-Provera does not offer any protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). We recommend using condoms with Depo-Provera to protect against sexually transmitted infections.
