An increased level of D-Dimers (above 500) may indicate an increased risk of thromboembolism, which may be a prerequisite for abandoning the use of contraceptive injections. According to the manufacturer's recommendations, this is not a contraindication to the administration of the drug, but great caution should be exercised, because among the side effects of injections, thrombophlebitis or pulmonary embolism can be distinguished, the risk of which is further increased by a high level of D-Dimers. However, it should be remembered that D-Dimers may also be elevated due to other diseases, e.g. psoriasis or COVID-19. I encourage you to consult a gynecologist who, based on the results obtained, will choose the right type of contraception.

The information that you have "too thick blood" is not entirely understandable to me. In order to answer you correctly, it would be necessary to analyze the results of your research, e.g. morphology or other studies, on the basis of which you received such information. Contraceptive injections are issued on prescription - I encourage you to present the results of the tests to the gynecologist. After their analysis, you will receive an answer whether you can use a given contraceptive preparation. I am attaching a study that may prove useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/zastrzyki-antykoncepcyjne
