A member asked:

Irregular periods placed on depo-provera shot but missed last month shot. headaches heartburn stomach pains and more could i be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get the shot: If you meant to get the shot, it is not too late. It does work for a little while longer than 12 weeks, so it would still be okay to go ahead and get the next shot. Ideally they are given every 12 weeks, so given the delay, check a pregnancy test.
