Ok, so I recently got on birth control (Depo Provera) on June 21-24 I was on my monthly cycle June 26 is the day I got on the Depo shot but on June 30 I had unprotected sex and my boyfriend did cum in me. Is it possible that I might be pregnant? If so how high is the possibility? I been feeling very nauseous weak stomach to the smell of food and having back pain.
Is it possible to get pregnant on Depo Provera?

i have recently been on the depo shot (april 11th) i had sex with my boyfriend and he ejaculated inside of me. am i okay? i no longer have my period (which i like) and since there’s no period then there’s no ovulation so i should be okay? the lady that gave it to me assured me that this shot will not get me pregnant. my boyfriends mom is also on the shot. she has had it for 10 years. she said as long as i’m on the shot and i took it on time, im good. she said the shot has never failed her.

I been on deposit for a little over 3 years and when you get the shot the doctor tells you to use a condom for the first 2 weeks after the shot so this is what you should do to prevent pregnancy

I've had 2 shots. Everytime me and my boyfriend have sex which is ALOT,he cums in me, and I am not pregnant. Symptoms come with the shot, many symptoms. But with the depo shot if you get pregnant there's very little chance of you even knowing because it is 97% of eloping. Don't think your pregnant because .3% of girls actually get pregnant on the shot.

The only absolute birth control is abstinence. You don't get symptoms of pregnancy so soon, and back pain is much later. You are supposed to use a condom if you don't get the shot while you have your period, so you have a slightly higher chance of pregnancy. Your symptoms are from the depo

You CAN NOT GET PREGNANT ON DEPO ! Symptoms come from the shot ! Its birth control its job is to tell your body its pregnant.!

Well I've been on the Depo shot for a year and a half I think and I've had super painful cramps, weird cravings for food, puking, mood swings, feeling bloated everyday, and my bf and I have been having unprotected sex all the time. Am I pregnant?

Not sure where u got that u have to use n alternative birth control(condoms)is u dont receive the shot while on ur cycle. The shot is effective immediately! I swear... Even if every1s to "shy"(or however u wanna say it)to ask ur health care professionals or pharmacists every1s shot comes with n insert explaining the effectiveness,side effects,when effective,so on. I mean i totally understand that easier to ask in a group such as this1,but 1of the most IMPORTANT questions EVERY1 that takes the shot SHOULD&id hope would ask is... When does this take effect? Immediately,or should i b using something else for a certain amount of time... &if/when im on an Antibiotic should i b using n alternative birth control method... is the Depo anything like the pill,in that respect. . . . "NO"! Antibiotics do not X the Depo out like they do several other birth control methods&tgere is NO wait time after getting the injestion,as i mentioned... it takes effect Immediately.

Just so y'all know YOU CAN GET PREGNANT ON THE SHOT!!! My aunt got pregnant 3 times on the shot so instead of askn people who think they know what they are talking about ask your doctor because you will get a real answer and your doctor will tell u the shot is so called 99% but it's not 100% so yes u can get pregnant on any birth control bc none of them is 100% !!!
