Specializes in Adolescent Medicine

Pregnant or not: Have you been sexually active during the time when you were "off" of the shot? Then you could be pregnant. The best test is the beta chain of human chorionic gonadotropin. It is elevated enough to be detected within 5 days after the ovum is fertilized.
