    Depo and Pregnancy
    Hello my name is Meghan I'm wondering what chance it is of me being pregnant.. I'm currently taking Depo injections I was 2 weeks late receiving my 3rd shot.. during that time I did have unprotected sex with my husband. With my last child I got pregnant while taking the pill faithfully. Now a month later I'm beginning to have signs of pregnancy frequent urination during the day and at night I'm also beging to have nausea in the morning witch I had with both of my children starting about the same time of pregnancy. What are the chances of being pregnant on this type of birth control after being 2 weeks late receiving my last depo shot?

    Depo is one of the harsher birthcontrols out there. If you go off it it might take a few months to several years to conceive. That being said that is average to worst case. Depending on the person you could be pregnant. Have you tested yet?

    There's a higher risk of pregnancy if you are late getting the depo. They recommend using alternate means of protection for at least a week as if it was your first shot. I would take a test to be sure
