A member asked:
If i miss my birth control shot by at least two weeks and get it after that two week mark does the shot still work effectively?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe, since fertility returns quickly for some and not so quicky for others. It is best to be careful and use additional contraception for the first month after you finally get your shot.
