A member asked:

I been on the depo-provera shot for five year i missed my shot it been three day can i get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

7 day grace period: If you get your next Depo within 7 days of when you missed the regularly scheduled one, you will be fine and protected. Once past that 7 day window you can ovulate and get pregnant.
