Any time: First of all, you are lucky to not have periods while on depo! Lots of women would gladly trade places with you. If you have to take a pregnancy test, it really won't matter when you take it. Hope this helps!

Depo: Usually you have a Depo shot every 3 months. The 3 month interval is a good time to check for pregnancy or if you have pregnancy symptoms sooner. All the best.
