The depo shot is a method of contraception for women. The shot contains a hormone that is similar to progesterone. The shot can only be administered by your doctor, and is injected in the buttocks or arm. Shots are effective for 12-14 weeks, but women are advised to get the shot every 12 weeks for maximum protection. Depo-Provera can start working immediately if you get the shot within the first five days of your period. As a hormonal contraceptive, the depo shot suppresses ovulation.
