If you have been: Getting your Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) shot every 11-13 months and are using condoms than the likelihood of you getting pregnant is <1%. You should be adequately protected.

Depo is 100% safe: Using Depo-Provera is 100% effective as long as you are on time with receiving the medication. There is no interference from other meds and along with condoms, you should protect yourself from most std's too. Not having a period is completely normal on depo. The only test that should be done while on Depo-Provera for > 3years is a bone density test as prolonged use of Depo-Provera could cause bone loss.Depo.
