A member asked:

I been on depo-provera for six months but got off of it in july and got switch too the pills i missed a couple of days and had unprotected sex can i be pregna?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible: Unprotected sex is always a risk for pregnancy as well as sexually transmitted diseases. If you missed a few pills, it is possible. Home pregnancy test about 3 wks or more after sex would help determine if you are pregnant.
