Hello..

Earlier this year in January I had the depo - contraception injection shortly after having a miscarriage, I only had the one injection! Anyway, I had intercourse around the 9th September (not sure on that date) and ever since I have been getting lots of pregnancy symptoms. Such as: Weight gain, sore boobs, boobs becoming bigger, fatigue, frequent urination nausea and the usual things.. BUT I have still been getting heavy periods. A few days ago my last period ended but today I have noticed a very light pink tiny bit's of blood every time I wipe after urination.. I have been very stressed recently and been a bit down also. Even the tiniest bit of help would be much appreciated!

No you are having your regular and heavy periods so you should not be pregnant.

It is possible that the depo injection is still effecting your cycles. It would be unusual, since it was just the single injection, but it could be a possibility.

Have you tried a pregnancy test? Some women will have some bleeding in pregnancy, often thinking it is their period.

If you try a test, be sure to follow the directions carefully. Certainly, for some women, stress can effect cycles as well.
If the test is negative, you may want to see your gp to try and determine another cause since you have been having other symptoms since September.
