getting pregnant off depo

[dmonae]

okay so ive been the depo for 9 months i just stopped my last shot was in february i was supposed to get my next one in the beginning of may but i decided to not get it ive been bleeding the whole time of me being on the depo thats why i decided to not go in for the next shot which was may 2 so a couple days before the date i was supposed to get my depo shot the bleeding led up for a couple days i had unprotected sex(april 29-30) and i honestly dont know if i could be pregnant because he did ejaculated in me , and i wouldnt know i had a missed period i was bleeding most of the time being on it , and ive been spotting mild cramps lower abdominal and lower back low fatigue, frequent urination, all i want to drink is water thats all i want to drink because i be feeling so dehydrated and really dont have taste for anything else and i also got real sick for a whole week straight and not to mentioned i fainted twice and one day, i was real lightheaded and had major headaches. LADIES I NEED MAJOR ANSWERS have anyone delt with the same thing and took 2 pregnancy test but they showed up negative

You had unprotected sex so of course you could be.

even with all that its a possibility ?

I think its highly unlikely, you were still covered by the feb depo at the end of April and if you were 7 weeks pregnant it would show on a test by now. Why not go to gp and ask them for a test?

It's possible yes. The depo only protects you for 3 months. If I was ever even a day late for my injection the nurse would make me do a pregnancy test before she'd give it to me because of course it's possible. It's unlikely though. Your body takes a long time to adjust after coming off of this kind of contraception which is the most likely cause of your symptoms. Give it another few weeks and see if things settle and then take another test.

I would test because obviously you had unprotected sex but in my case I had 2 shots came off it to try to conceive and it took 18 months to actually clear my system before I fell pregnant

you can still get a false negative

I was on the depo for more than 10 years

i came off the depo in may 2022 12 weeks

i didn’t get periods until november

They were heavy all over the place and sometimes I had a weld gap inbetween each period but in July 2023 I’ve got pregnant, you’ve just gotta wade through all the period drama
