A member asked:

I've missed my depo-provera shot in dec. had unprotected sex in jan. and i still haven't had a period, could i be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Missed Depo: The only way to determine if you are pregnant, even in the best of circumstances (timely depo, iud, tubal ligation, ocps, etc) is to have a pregnancy test asap. This could be urine (cheap and accurate) and blood HCG level (the gold standard) its worth doing a urine test every 48 hours as the HCG levels in the blood double in that time and the numbers rise fast enough that any urine preg test works.
