A member asked:
Does getting a depo shot 4 wks early decrease efficacy? i needed to get it early, bc i was leaving to go abroad. i'm worried about pregnancy.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Does not reduce: efficacy if Depo is administered early. Next injection should be administered 90 days after early one. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
