Depo shot

Hi all,
I missed my depo shot by 8 days
Does anyone know if I would still be protected or not?

Not sure exactly, but my docs allow you to book an appointment for the injection up to 5 days after it is due.

Be careful because I know someone who got pregnant in Week 10 on Depo.

Yeah that's what most people say 5days. It's my second shot now, when I went I asked and was told i would be cause it was right on time but when I calculated it, it was late by 8 days.

I find it hard to believe it covers you 100% up to the date of the next one and not a single week after. They must allow room for error I'm sure you're fine
