It is possible the Depo can reduce immunity in those that use it.

How hormones do that is under a lot of research.

Think Lyle Alzado (sp?) and his dying from cancer because he injected himself with anabolic steroids (hormones)...

Back then it wasn't understood what goes on. But now, with genomics, proteomics and metabolomics along with bioinformatics, it is possible to isolate responsive genes to hormones in the immunological pathways left once undiscovered...

So, I pretty much buy that story that Depo can decrease immunity...
