Its literally just a high dose of normal hormonal birth control btw. So it's just a more effective in an emergency but slightly less safe version. Letting y'all know in case somebody tries to tell you CVS is selling abortions now.
Also don't use it as regular birth control. If you find yourself using it a bunch you probably need to look into better types of birth control. If the problem is specifically that your partner is interfering with or preventing you from using normal hormonal birth control (and especially if you need something undetectable while you work out an exit strategy) you should try to talk to a doctor about the depo provera shot. It's like a flu shot and once it's in it's undetectable for the three months it's effective for. And even if he did somehow find out you got it, he can't cut or rip it out like he could with an implant.
(I accidentally pulled my own IUD out, and I'm pretty sure my gyn was lowkey convinced my boyfriend did it. Apparently that's a thing.)
Depo is great, but do be mindful that it shouldn't be used long-term unless you have no other options, as it can contribute to loss of bone density (osteoporosis).
