Is it okay to have sex two weeks before the depo-provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) wears off? & i don't wanna take the shot again

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sex: Anytime before you are do for your next shot should be covered by the current depo, if you have unprotected sex after you would be due for another shot, then u are at risk for preg.
