Depo-Provera Settlement Calculator 2026: What Real Depo-Provera Cases Have Paid

Use the Depo-Provera settlement calculator to organize potential claim factors after repeated Depo-Provera or depot medroxyprogesterone acetate injections and a later meningioma diagnosis, including injection history, treatment, neurological effects, medical records, wage loss and other damages.

Quick answer: There is no court-approved payout schedule that can determine an individual Depo-Provera claim value. The strongest valuation evidence is usually claim-specific: documented product use, a confirmed meningioma diagnosis, treatment burden, neurological impairment, economic loss, causation evidence, jurisdiction and filing deadlines. This calculator provides an educational range—not a settlement offer or guaranteed result.

FDA Meningioma Warning

The current FDA-approved prescribing information states that meningioma cases have been reported following repeated administration, primarily with long-term use.

FDA prescribing information →

Research Continues

Multiple observational studies have reported an association between injectable medroxyprogesterone acetate and meningioma risk, particularly with longer exposure.

Review study context →
Important distinction: an association reported in observational research does not by itself prove medical causation in an individual case, and MDL centralization does not establish liability.
Claim Screening Factors

Who May Qualify for a Depo-Provera Lawsuit Review?

Eligibility is not determined by this page. Attorneys evaluating a potential claim may review the type and duration of medroxyprogesterone acetate injections, diagnosis timing, tumor type and location, treatment, medical proof, alternative risk factors, damages, defendants and applicable filing deadline.

Factors That May Support Review

  • Documented Depo-Provera or depot medroxyprogesterone acetate injections before diagnosis
  • Confirmed intracranial meningioma diagnosis supported by imaging or pathology
  • Longer or repeated injection history documented in pharmacy, clinic or insurance records
  • Surgery, radiation, neurological symptoms, surveillance or future-care needs
  • Documented medical costs, wage loss, disability or quality-of-life impact

Issues Requiring Closer Review

  • Unclear injection dates or product identity
  • Diagnosis before use began
  • Tumor type not clearly documented as an intracranial meningioma
  • Missing imaging, pathology, pharmacy or provider records
  • Statute-of-limitations, jurisdiction or other deadline concerns
Do not self-disqualify based on missing records. Pharmacy, clinic, insurer and medical-provider records may help reconstruct product use and treatment history.
From the public record

What Depo-Provera Cases Have Actually Produced

No Depo-Provera meningioma case has produced a public verdict, and no settlement amount has been disclosed. Here is what is actually on the record as of September 2026.

The settlement

Pfizer master settlement agreement

Not disclosed

Signed 21 July 2026, covering a majority of the cases already on file in the MDL and in New York state court. The parties estimate roughly 80% of MDL plaintiffs will be eligible.

Private agreement. No amount has ever been made public.
The docket

MDL 3140, Northern District of Florida

6,403 cases

Pending before Judge M. Casey Rodgers on 1 September 2026. No Depo-Provera case has been tried to a verdict.

The timing

Registration and payment

Q1 2027

The court has said settlement registration should be completed in November 2026, and the parties expect payments to begin in the first quarter of 2027.

Registration is open only to claimants whose cases were already on file.
No tier, matrix or average exists for this litigation. Any dollar range quoted for Depo-Provera is someone’s projection, not a published outcome. Claim value depends on causation evidence, tumour location, surgery, permanency, jurisdiction, deadlines, product-use proof, defendants, liens and future court rulings.
The Settlement

What the 2026 Depo-Provera Master Settlement Actually Is

A master settlement agreement is not a payout schedule, and the difference decides what this page can honestly tell you. Pfizer and plaintiffs’ leadership announced a global agreement in principle on June 15, 2026, and Judge M. Casey Rodgers vacated the first bellwether trial, Toney v. Pfizer, which had been set for December 7, 2026. The master agreement itself was signed on July 21, 2026 and covers most of the federal claims then on file in MDL 3140, with the parties estimating that roughly 80 percent of MDL plaintiffs will meet the eligibility criteria. BrownGreer PLC was appointed settlement administrator on August 5, 2026. Every one of those steps is real, dated and checkable — and not one of them is a dollar figure.

The terms of the agreement are confidential. There is no public payout chart, no per-tier compensation range and no total fund size confirmed by the court or by either party. That is an ordinary feature of a private aggregate settlement: the parties negotiate a framework, a third-party administrator evaluates each claim against agreed criteria, and individual offers go to individual claimants rather than to the docket. It also means that any specific Depo-Provera settlement amount circulating online right now — and several are circulating, usually as a range spanning an order of magnitude — has no basis in any filed document. This page does not repeat them, and a reader who finds one elsewhere is entitled to ask which record it came from.

What the settlement does not do matters as much as what it does. The court noted that the agreement will not end the MDL: only plaintiffs who meet the eligibility criteria agreed by the parties will have the opportunity to resolve their claims, so a claim that falls outside those criteria stays in litigation on the ordinary track. Pfizer’s federal preemption motion was still undecided when the agreement was reached, which is unusually early in a pharmaceutical MDL and is part of why the terms carry the conditions they do. Registration for the programme is expected to open and complete during November 2026, with the first payments projected for the first quarter of 2027 — projected by the administrator’s timetable, not guaranteed by any order.

For a claimant, the practical work is the same as it was before the agreement: the injection records establishing how long Depo-Provera or its generic equivalent was used, the imaging and pathology confirming an intracranial meningioma, and the dates linking the two. Those are the documents an administrator evaluates, and they are what the calculator on this page organises. Our Depo-Provera lawsuit guide covers who may qualify and on what theories, the Depo-Provera settlement amounts page records the money question as it develops, and our 2026 settlement update tracks each filing as it lands.

Medical Evidence Context

Depo-Provera, Medroxyprogesterone Acetate & Meningioma Research

The medical literature has developed quickly. The studies below are observational and should be read as population-level evidence rather than a diagnosis or individual causation determination.

BMJ 2024 National Case-Control Study

A French national case-control study reported an odds ratio of 5.55 for injectable medroxyprogesterone acetate and intracranial meningioma requiring surgery; the excess risk was driven by prolonged use of at least one year.

PubMed study record →

U.S. Population Study

A U.S. retrospective cohort study reported a relative risk of 2.43 for meningioma diagnosis among depot medroxyprogesterone acetate users compared with controls, with higher-risk patterns tied to longer exposure.

PubMed study record →

2026 Danish Population Study

A Danish case-control study reported an odds ratio of 4.55 for injectable medroxyprogesterone and incident meningioma, adding another population-level dataset to the evidence base.

PubMed study record →
FDA label context: the prescribing information revised in December 2025 instructs clinicians to monitor for signs and symptoms of meningioma and discontinue Depo-Provera CI if a meningioma is diagnosed.
Evidence Checklist

Evidence That Can Strengthen a Depo-Provera Claim Review

The calculator is most useful when answers can be tied to records rather than estimates from memory.

  • Depo-Provera injection records and dates
  • Pharmacy, OB-GYN, clinic or insurer records confirming use
  • MRI or CT imaging confirming the meningioma
  • Pathology, neurology, oncology or neurosurgery records
  • Craniotomy, radiation and hospitalization records
  • Records of seizures, vision loss, hearing changes, headaches or cognitive effects
  • Medical bills and out-of-pocket expenses
  • Lost-income and employment documentation
  • Disability, caregiving and rehabilitation records
  • Future-treatment or surveillance recommendations
  • A dated injection-to-diagnosis timeline
  • Documents showing the impact on normal activities and work
Federal Court Timeline

MDL No. 3140: Depo-Provera Litigation Status

MDL 3140 is pending in the Northern District of Florida before Judge M. Casey Rodgers. Multidistrict litigation coordinates common pretrial matters such as discovery and expert issues; it is not a class action and does not create a guaranteed settlement.

February 7, 2025: the JPML transferred Depo-Provera products-liability actions to the Northern District of Florida for coordinated pretrial proceedings.
September 1, 2026: JPML’s monthly report listed 6,403 actions pending in MDL 3140 and 6,510 historical actions.
August 21, 2026: the official MDL page lists a case-management conference at 9:00 a.m. CT.
September 18, 2026: the court lists another case-management conference followed by a Rule 702 motions hearing.
Why Rule 702 matters: expert-admissibility rulings can affect which scientific causation opinions are allowed to proceed, but they do not determine an individual claimant’s damages by themselves.
Claim Valuation

What Can Affect Depo-Provera Settlement Value?

1. Injection History

Duration, frequency, dose records and reliable proof of use can affect exposure analysis.

2. Tumor Characteristics

Location, size, recurrence, grade, symptoms and medical prognosis can affect treatment burden and damages.

3. Surgery & Treatment

Craniotomy, radiation, hospitalization, rehabilitation, surveillance and future care can materially affect losses.

4. Neurological Effects

Vision, hearing, seizure, balance, cognitive and other documented neurological limitations may affect damages.

5. Economic Loss

Medical expenses, wage loss, reduced earning capacity, disability and caregiving costs can increase documented damages.

6. Legal & Evidentiary Risk

Causation rulings, expert evidence, jurisdiction, deadlines, defendants and competing explanations can affect settlement posture.

Calculator Method

How the Depo-Provera Settlement Calculator Works

The calculator organizes claim information into a preliminary educational model. It does not use one universal multiplier or substitute for medical, legal or records review.

1. Document Product Use

Enter injection duration and the strongest available records showing Depo-Provera or medroxyprogesterone acetate use before diagnosis.

2. Enter Diagnosis & Treatment

Use imaging, pathology, surgery, radiation, surveillance and neurological information whenever available.

3. Add Damages

Include medical expenses, wage loss, disability, future care, treatment burden and other documented losses.

Calculator limitation: the result cannot determine legal causation, predict a Rule 702 ruling, calculate a state filing deadline or guarantee an attorney will accept the case.
Time Limits

Depo-Provera Lawsuit Filing Deadlines

There is no single national statute of limitations for every Depo-Provera claim. Deadlines can depend on state law, diagnosis date, discovery rules, prior proceedings, defendant-specific issues and other facts.

Do not rely on the calculator for deadlines. A late claim can be barred even when the medical injury is serious. The governing jurisdiction and facts must be reviewed separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Depo-Provera Settlement Calculator FAQ

What does this tool actually give me?

It organizes product use, meningioma diagnosis, treatment, neurological effects and damages into an educational claim-value range. It does not predict an actual settlement.

What is the average Depo-Provera settlement amount?

No reliable universal average applies to an individual claim. The master settlement agreement signed on July 21, 2026 is confidential, so no court-approved payout schedule is public and any figure circulating online is unsupported by the record.

How many Depo-Provera cases are currently pending in MDL 3140?

The JPML report dated September 1, 2026 lists 6,403 actions pending. The count can change as actions are filed, transferred, dismissed or otherwise resolved.

Does the FDA label mention meningioma?

Yes. The prescribing information revised in December 2025 includes a meningioma warning and says cases have been reported after repeated administration, primarily with long-term use.

Does research prove Depo-Provera caused my tumor?

No population study can make that individual determination by itself. Medical causation requires claim-specific medical and legal analysis.

Does using the calculator create an attorney-client relationship?

No. Using this website or calculator does not create an attorney-client relationship. Representation requires acceptance by a licensed attorney and an engagement agreement.

Methodology

How We Sourced This Page

Every fact on this page is dated to the event that produced it. The June 15, 2026 agreement in principle and the vacatur of the Toney bellwether come from Judge Rodgers’s order in MDL 3140; the July 21, 2026 master settlement agreement, the roughly 80 percent eligibility estimate and BrownGreer’s August 5, 2026 appointment as administrator come from the reporting of that docket. The pending-case count comes from the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation’s own September 1, 2026 statistics report. Where the page describes what the medical literature shows about medroxyprogesterone acetate and intracranial meningioma, it links the peer-reviewed study rather than a summary of it, and where it describes the label, it links the FDA record.

This page publishes no settlement range, no average and no claim tier for Depo-Provera, because the master settlement agreement is confidential and no payout schedule has been filed or released. Ranges quoted elsewhere are attorney estimates, and an estimate offered before an administrator has evaluated a single claim is a guess with a dollar sign in front of it. Where this page states that something is projected — the November 2026 registration window, the first-quarter 2027 payment timetable — it says who is projecting it. Facts were re-read against their sources on September 12, 2026. The same standard governs the other TortAdvisor settlement calculators and the settlement amounts library.
