Hundreds of Women Sue Contraceptive Company Pfizer, Claiming Depo Provera Causes Brain Tumors

Hundreds of women in the United States have filed lawsuits against Pfizer, claiming that the birth control injection Depo-Provera caused them to develop brain tumours known as meningiomas. The women say they were never properly warned about the risks, while Pfizer maintains that the product is safe when used as directed and that it has always followed regulatory guidelines. In this episode, we look at what these lawsuits mean, what scientific studies have said about Depo-Provera’s long-term use, and why this story also matters to Africa ,where millions of women rely on the same injection through public hospitals and family planning programs. This is not about fear, but about facts, accountability, and the right to informed consent. #Pfizer #DepoProvera #LNN #WomensHealth #Africa #LynnNgugi Support Our Work MPESA: +254 726 916 908 Or through PayBill: 4096889 Account Name: LNN Thank You
