An effective long-acting reversible\u00a0method of contraception.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contraceptive injection contains a\u00a0hormone that stops eggs being released. Injectables are a very effective method of contraception when used correctly,\u00a0shown to be 20 times more effective than short term contraceptive methods, such as the pill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You must make sure to return for an injection every 2-3 months, otherwise you risk the chance of becoming pregnant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
