Trust the test: Home pregnancy tests are very accurate. They are the same tests used in a doctor's office. They can detect a pregnancy 7-10 days after conception. The best time to take one is when you miss your period. If you doubt the result you can repeat it in 1-2 days. If you were pregnant the hormone level would rise enough for detection.

Pregnancy: If you missed your Depo shot, there is a chance you may get pregnant. Missing the shot also throws off your hormones and therefore your period, so you may have no periods, spotting, or frequent heavy periods. Resume the shot and be sure to use an additional form of contraception like condoms for the first month.
