The Association Between Medroxyprogesterone Acetate Exposure and Cerebral Meningioma Among a Medicaid Population
The current results are consistent with the prior literature that dMPA exposure is associated with an increased likelihood of meningioma for prolonged use. More research is needed to examine whether the association is limited to a certain histology or grade of meningioma. Clinicians should consider discussing with patients these reported associations prior to using dMPA.
