Danazol and Depo Provera
I underwent a surgery and a cyst was removed from near my ovary. I was diagnosed with endometriosis afterwards and the doctor prescribed me Danazol and also Depo Provera 150mg inj every month for the next six months. I did my own research and found out that when using Danazol, hormonal contraceptives are not effective but non hormonal contraceptive such as condoms should be used to prevent pregnancy. Why is hormonal contraceptives not effective while on Danazol?

Actually your your doctor is using definite method not condom why there is always risk of rupture or leakage.Because surgery you have got done and you should not get pregnancy at least for 6 months this is the reason she has given.
