Hi DrMallick,
Depo-Provera can cause a number of side effects, including:
Irregular menstrual periods, or no periods at all
Headaches
Nervousness
Depression
Dizziness
Acne
Changes in appetite
Weight gain
Excessive growth of facial and body hair

Its better to use condom or tell your wife can take Birth control Pills.
