Suppression of ovulation and pharmacokinetics following subcutaneous administration of various doses of Depo-Provera®: a randomized trial.

A dose of 105 mg of Depo-Provera injected subcutaneously was the lowest tested dose that consistently suppressed ovulation and maintained serum MPA levels consistent with contraceptive effect for at least 4 months. The PK and PD results for the 105 mg dose were similar to Depo-subQ provera 104 over this period.
