A member asked:
I'm on depo, in the future when i stop, is there more probabilities i end up with twins or triples ? after let's say the use of depo for 2 yrs?

NO: There is no contraceptive that will increase the risk or likelihood of having a multiple pregnancy, Fertility drugs can have that effect - but not contraceptives.

Myth: Depo or the pill all work by tricking your body into believing you are pregnant so you won't release any eggs.When the meds fade, your body resumes as if you had a baby.It does not double up to make up for lost time.
