Are you talking about a birth control injection so you don't get pregnant?

If that is what you mean, than yes women with cf can take the depo provera injection/shot, although speaking from experience, I hated it. I wouldn't reccomend it to anyone. It made me so tense and depressed and I think it made my cf symptoms worse too. I was tired all the time.
I have also been on the Nuva ring and I like that much more. I felt so much better on that.
As for it messing up fertility-thats a personal choice. Its possible, but you also want to be careful to no get pregnant till you are very very healthy and able to get through it and care for your baby.

Another thing to consider if you are talking about the depo pervera birth control shot: for every year you are on it you will lose about 3% of your bone mass. This can be pretty serious for CFers considering that CFers tend to have early onset osteoperosis. My docs think it probably contributed to me having osteopenia. Most people can make up for that loss by taking extra calcium, but since we don't absorb vitamin D and calcium properly we usually can't fight that loss.
