Depo inj vs prostap

Hello everyone,

I was wondering what the difference is between the depo provera injection and the prostap? I'm aware the depo provera is a contraceptive and the prostap is not but that's about it.

Is there one that's better for endo than the other? I'm due for my 2nd depo injection at the end of the month and it has helped my endo symptoms slightly but I was wondering if there is something better.

Hi Bubble_by,

I have provided a link from the endoUK website on the different forms of hormone treatment which should help clarify the difference for you.
