Can anyone give me some advise please? I'm on the depo injection and am due my 5th one beginning of March but have recently been having pregnancy symptoms.. I've been told by plenty of people I'm just being paranoid and that's it's near impossible to fall pregnant on the injection, a week after my first one I stopped bleeding completely but didn't put on any weight or have any other side effects yet the last few weeks I've slowly started gaining weight (but haven't changed my diet) and my boobs have slowly started to get bigger and more tender, I've also started feeling more and more tired, I'm embarrassed to go to my GP incase I am just paranoid and I waste their time, I just don't know what's going on Sad

You don't have to go to the GP, just buy a pregnancy test.

I was planning to once I finish work later tonight but wanted to know if it is even possible and if it has happened to anyone before as I purposely chose the depo injection as I fell pregnant on the pill before

I think it's safe to say that no method of contraception is 100% foolproof.

However, only way to know if you yourself are pregnant is to POAS.

No method of contraception is 100% secure so it's not impossible, although it's unlikely. Hopefully a pregnancy test will put your mind at rest.
