TikToker @marlenadeering1 shared a video showing their mixed feelings about the study after being a Depo Shot user.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- code from Primis - Dailydot Original Content Player_Hardcoded_test --><\/p>\n<p>\n      <span class=\"ad-wrapper__text\">Featured Video<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- code from Primis --><\/p>\n<p>The text overlay in the creator\u2019s video reads, \u201cFinding out the birth control i was on for 2 years (depo shot) is in a class action lawsuit right now for brain tumors but i can also file and receive money for being at risk and having consistent headaches since then.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs the brain tumor worth the money guys?\u201d she added in the caption.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-depo-shot\">What is Depo Shot?<\/h2>\n<p>Depo Shot, or Depo-Provera, is a contraceptive shot meant to be taken every three to four months to prevent pregnancy. Depo Shot contains progestin, a hormone that prevents ovulation, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plannedparenthood.org\/learn\/birth-control\/birth-control-shot\">Planned Parenthood.<\/a> To be more specific, Depo Shot contains medroxyprogesterone acetate. This is a synthetic version of the naturally occurring progesterone hormone.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-about-the-depo-shot-lawsuit\">What about the Depo Shot lawsuit?<\/h2>\n<p>It seems that medroxyprogesterone acetate is the root of the issue. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/384\/bmj-2023-078078\">a study published in the BMJ<\/a>, Depo Shot might cause intracranial brain tumors. They conducted the study in France and collected data from 18,061 females who had surgery for a specific type of brain tumor. The results concluded that females who had used medroxyprogesterone acetate \u201cfor 12 or more months had a 5.6-fold higher risk of developing a brain tumor,\u201d as reported in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/advisor\/legal\/product-liability\/depo-provera-lawsuit\/\">Forbes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While the tumor potentially caused by the shot is benign, it can still be dangerous. Additionally, other side effects can include blurred vision, seizures, headaches, and numbness. Hence, why @marlenadeering1 mentioned their chronic headaches in the video.<\/p>\n<p>The TikToker\u2019s video has almost 10,000 comments and 10.7 million views as of Saturday morning. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@marlenadeering1\/video\/7431232787807522091\" data-video-id=\"7431232787807522091\" style=\"max-width: 605px;min-width: 325px\">\n<section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@marlenadeering1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@marlenadeering1?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">@marlenadeering1<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>is the brain tumor worth the money guys \ud83d\ude0d<\/p>\n<p> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - Relatable\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7271379781131324193?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">\u266c original sound \u2013 Relatable<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-viewers-saying\">What are viewers saying?<\/h2>\n<p>Viewers are just as concerned as @marlenadeering1 is.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWait WHAT i have no tumor but headaches everyday\u2026.,\u201d one commenter shared. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot to mention it made me gain almost 100lbs in 3 months when ive never gained like that. got off immediately,\u201d another user wrote. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy is TikTok how I find this out,\u201d says a different comment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNooo this is the only contraception that\u2019s worked for me!
