A member asked:
I got my first depo-provera shot in january and my next shot is march 30th. had unprotected sex twice. any chance i could be pregnant? is the shot working?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Depo is very effective at preventing pregnancy. If you have any doubts, however, use an over the counter pregnancy tests. Periods are irregular with the Depo-Provera shot, so you can't rely on that every month to tell you you are not pregnant.
