I don't know: Take a pregnancy test and find out. I personally think its unlikely, but who knows? Your intuition might be correct.

Intuition is wrong: You can have all the intuition you want; This only represents your worry or nerves. But you are on DEPO. You do not get pregnant. Now you have gotten tons of answers today. I think it is time for you to do a pregnancy test rather than keep asking strangers to guess if you are pregnant. Don't you think? Go get a pregnancy test. Be done worrying about the improbable.

Unlikely: The depo-provera can give you symptoms some of which are like those of pregnancy and be the reason you are thinking you might be.For your peace of mind do a pregnancy test and trust the results.
