Thousands of women allege that Depo-Provera, a widely used birth control injection, caused them to develop meningiomas — Depo-Provera brain tumors that can bring devastating health consequences. The litigation is growing fast, and the numbers tell a striking story.

Cumulative Total vs. Pending Depo-Provera Lawsuits

The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML) tracks all cases consolidated into MDL No. 3140, the federal Depo-Provera litigation. Two numbers matter here: pending cases (active and unresolved) and total historical cases (every case ever filed, including any resolved or dismissed).

As of March 2026, the MDL contains 3,099 pending cases and 3,155 total historical cases. That gap of 56 cases represents matters already resolved or transferred out.

Here's what stands out from the data:

The litigation launched with just 78 cases in March 2025 and surpassed 3,100 total cases by March 2026 — roughly a 3,940% increase in twelve months.
Pending cases stayed remarkably close to total cases throughout, meaning very few lawsuits have been dismissed or settled so far.
Growth accelerated sharply in the second half of the tracking period. The MDL crossed 1,000 cases in October 2025 and tripled that figure by March 2026.

The small difference between pending and total cases signals that this litigation remains in its early stages. Courts are still building the procedural framework, not resolving claims.

Number of New Depo-Provera Lawsuits Filed Each Month

Monthly filing data reveals the pace at which new plaintiffs are entering the litigation. The numbers fluctuate, but the overall trend points firmly upward.

Key takeaways from the monthly data:

The lowest monthly increase was 3 new cases in October 2025.
The highest single-month surge came in February 2026, with 1,032 new cases — more than the entire MDL held just five months earlier.
Several months saw triple-digit increases, including August 2025 (263), September 2025 (421), and January 2026 (348).

The February 2026 spike alone accounted for nearly a third of all historical filings. This kind of acceleration often reflects growing public awareness, expanded attorney outreach, and emerging scientific evidence linking Depo-Provera to meningioma risk.

What Do These Numbers Mean for New Plaintiffs?

A rapidly growing MDL generally benefits new plaintiffs. Large case counts strengthen the litigation's credibility, increase pressure on defendants during settlement negotiations, and attract greater judicial resources.

For anyone researching how to file a Depo-Provera lawsuit, the trajectory matters. Courts typically establish bellwether trials — test cases that help both sides gauge how juries might respond — once the MDL reaches a critical mass. With over 3,000 cases now consolidated, that process may move forward soon.

Filing sooner rather than later can also help preserve your legal options. Statutes of limitations vary by state, and waiting too long could bar a claim entirely.

Get Matched With a Depo-Provera Lawsuit Lawyer

Navigating a mass tort case alone is overwhelming. ConsumerShield matches you directly with an experienced Depo-Provera lawyer who specializes in cases like yours. If you or someone you love developed a meningioma after receiving Depo-Provera injections, we can help you take the next step — at no upfront cost.
