Were you diagnosed with a Meningioma Tumor after using the birth control Depo-Provera?

You may be eligible for compensation

Depo-Provera is a commonly used contraceptive medication given by injection once every three months. It may be used by nearly 25% of women at some point during their lives, many of whom will use the medication for longer than one year.

Recent findings suggest a potential link between prolonged use of Depo-Provera and an increased risk of developing meningiomas—a type of tumor that forms in the protective membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord.

Depo-Provera Meningioma Study

A recent study has shown that use of Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate) for longer than one year may increase the risk of intracranial meningioma tumor by 5.5-fold. Depo-Provera is an injectable form of progesterone and is used as a type of birth control but is also used to treat conditions such as endometriosis and ovarian cysts.

Meningioma is a non-malignant tumor which grows from membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, known as meninges. Meningioma is not usually cancerous but may press on the brain, nerves or vessels and may result in disability or become life-threatening.

Treatment of meningioma commonly requires surgery to remove the tumor. Surgical removal of a tumor located near the brain or central nervous system may place the patient at additional risk due to the possibility of nerve or brain tissue damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • About Seeger Weiss

    Seeger Weiss is best known for multidistrict mass torts and class actions in both state and federal court. From offices in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts, the firm has represented over 10,000 individuals, companies, and governments across the U.S. who have been injured or defrauded on a massive scale.

    Since its founding in 1999, it has led many of the most complex and high-profile cases in the country: the National Prescription Opiate Litigation; 3M Combat Arms Earplug Products Liability Litigation; the ongoing “Dieselgate” scandal; the sprawling multistate litigation on behalf of survivors of child sexual abuse; and the Football League Players’ Concussion Injury Litigation.

    Seeger Weiss doesn’t simply “collect” clients for other lawyers to serve. We go to court and get results, having achieved multiple recoveries in the hundreds of millions and billions of dollars on behalf of large classes of injured clients. Whatever the case, we have the experience and resources necessary to go toe-to-toe with the biggest and best-funded corporations in America.

    Prior results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter.

  • Who am I talking to when I call Seeger Weiss?

    Almost of our calls are initially handled by our talented reception team. Depending on the nature of the call, they may connect you to one of Seeger Weiss’s intake specialists (for prospective clients) or to one of our case management paralegals (for current clients). These teams are here to answer your questions, provide context, and help guide you through process of becoming a client or of pursuing your case in court.

  • Do I have to pay?

    The vast majority of the work Seeger Weiss does is on a contingency basis. That means we are paid only once we have secured financial compensation via trial or settlement—usually a percentage of the total award. Individual retainer agreements, which prospective clients must review and sign to retain Seeger Weiss as their legal representation, will share information on how your contingency fee works.

  • I just signed a retainer, what happens next?

    Once you’ve signed a retainer agreement with Seeger Weiss, the firm becomes your legal representation. For the firm, our next step is to gather as much information about your case as possible. Typically, that means you’ll sign authorization forms that allow us to speak on your behalf to or obtain information from other organizations and institutions, such as a primary care physician’s office or a hospital.
