A member asked:

I'm on depo and got my 3rd shot 2/9. had sex 2/12. did a pregnancy test 3/9. it was negative. should it be accurate by now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: If the last episode of sex was on 2/12 and had you become pregnant from that, the pregnancy test would be positive on 3/9. If you had sex after that and got pregnant from that, then it may be too soon to test.
