A member asked:
If you have unprotected 4-5 days after getting the depo shot can you get pregnant?

Depends on menses.: The depo shot is effective immediately if stated within the first 5 days after starting your period. If you got the shot later, your body may already be primed to ovulate, and then you would be at risk of pregnancy. I hope timing was right for you.

Pregnancy: pregnancy is possible but anytime that you have unprotected sex I would suggest that you take protection when having sex. If you miss your period do a home pregnancy test
