Unsure where to post this...

Hi, title says it all really! Back in May I had my depo but I had it at exactly 13 weeks instead of 12 or the maximum 12 weeks plus 5 days. So 2 days late! Nurse didn’t seem concerned! For the last few weeks I’ve felt unwell, exhausted, achy muscles, unable to lose weigh although I do slimming world..?! I’m seeing the dr next week to do bloods to check thyroid etc, when this dawned on me! Could I be pregnant?! I have a 20
Month old and was on depo before I had him it took 15 months from last injection to conceive so I think this is unlikely, but has this happened to anyone before? 🤦‍♀️ Any advice appreciated. Thanks

Take a test?

I was on depo for a few years, I think being two days late getting it wouldn't make much difference, it is very strong!

Perhaps take a test to be sure

Thanks I’m popping to get a test later although I’m pretty sure my bloods will show something next week as I know the likelihood of being pg is very slim! Just panicking! Thanks x

Depo is effective until 14 weeks so extremely unlikely to be pregnant.

People get pregnant on the depo all the time!
