A member asked:

Would a blood pregnancy test be accurate if you waited three week after sex and you are on depo-provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) bc you no longer get a period nevr miss a shot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Three weeks after sex is long enough for a pregnancy test to show whether or not a woman got pregnant 3 weeks ago.
