Maybe not, but...: It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result if done correctly. One can test about 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. An Ob-Gyn doctor can evaluate any persistent or worrisome symptoms.

Amenorrhea: Amenorrhea after depo Provera is not unusual. Some patients may not see their menses from two months to nine month. Once you stop depo provera, you are no longer protected contraceptive wise and there is chance of pregnancy with intercourse. You can get pregnancy text for reassurance. Good luck.
