A member asked:

Could i be pregnant if i was late on my depo-provera shot and had unprotected intercourse, and then got the shot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It is possible: Depends how late you were since the Depo-Provera can still be in your system longer than the 3 months, the rule in my office is, if you are late for the depo, you must get a blood preg test first and then u can get the depo, do a blood preg test so u know for sure.
