Will taking calcium + vitamin D supplements combat the bone loss associated with depo-provera?

I have recently been prescribed depo-provera injection (medroxyprogesterone) and after doing some research online I found that it can cause bone loss. I am 18 and I already have osteopenia and brittle bones so I’m kind of worried. If I took calcium and vitamin D supplements daily, would my bones be fine?
