A member asked:
How soon can i get pregnant if my first depo-provera shot ended a week ago and i haven't gotten the next one. i've had unprotected sex twice.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: Return to fertility is variable with depo. The Depo-Provera schedule is designed for the best contraceptive effectiveness and should be adhered to. If you are just one week late for your next scheduled dose you should still be protected, but the effectiveness is decreasing the longer you go.
