Hi,

I wonder can you help me. My girlfriend and I are considering trying for a baby. In September 2006 she had a contraceptive injection. She can't remember the exact name of the injection. On the net the only info we can find is for the injection which protects against pregnancy for 12 weeks. However the injection my girlfriend had protects against pregnancy for 12-14 months. She received the injection in her arm (it wasn't the implant that protects for 3 years)

I was just wondering, would anyone be able to advise:

* the name of this injection
* the timespan involved before the injection wears off

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated

(BTW, we're in Ireland)
