A member asked:

I just was iinjected the depo-provera shot on the 9th of september 2013. and i had unprotected sex 11 day after. can i still get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Most of the Depo-Provera pregnancies that i see are from women having unprotected sex less than 30 days from 1st injection. The others from late injections. Use a condom the first 30 days. Check a preg. Test in 2 weeks.
