depo provera while pregnant

If you were using Depo-Provera it may take longer for your cycles to return to normal. Keep in mind that Depo-Provera is designed to be a long-lasting form of birth control. Even though it is intended to help you avoid pregnancy for up to three months, it may actually prevent pregnancy longer. Depo-Provera is a synthetic hormone similar to progesterone.

rite i came off my depo provera 8 ths ago i only had 2 injections then came off it i got my periods back straight away and i think i have been ovulating but am not sure well the question is is there any1 that can tell me how long it could take me 2 get pregnant i was told the longer ur on the depo the longer it takes 2 fall pregnant but i dont know if that true i really need to know about this has any1 else came off the depo provera and how long did it take them 2 get pregnant thank you so much

I am little confused by your question. The depo provera shot is given once every three months not for three months at some unspecified interval. If you mean that you received the depo shot 4 months ago, and hence, the last month, you did not get a repeat depo shot, then the answer to your question is, yes, you can get pregnant. I was on the depo shot for about 5 years before stopping to try to conceive. It took me 3 years to conceive my son who is 6 years old.

ve recently had two friends tell me they got pregnant while on depo. I thought that it was one of the only birth control methods that prevented pregnancy the most...

I been on depo since 2008 and never had a period since I just now been in.a relationship ny bf ejaculated inside me . My question.really is isn't it hard to.become pregnant while taking the depo.

Hi there, Depo vera is injected every 12 weeks while the contraceptive has the power to prevent conception up to 14 weeks, the injections are usually given every 12 weeks to ensure that there is no gap in the effectiveness of the birth control between shots. If such a schedule is maintained, pregnancy while on Depo-Provera is extremely rare. Since your girlfriend was not on taking it regularly there might have been a period when she had sex while not on depo.

I was on the depo for about a year and it was my only form of bc, no condoms, no pulling out. I didn't get pregnant while on it.

I've heard it takes awhile to get pregnant after quitting depo provera. Sometimes over a year. Maybe I'm a bit old fashioned and cautious, but I would suggest taking the pill. Gl.

Hi, i have a well grounded education in biology and chemistry, but it seems in the feild of tyhe womens response to hormones i am lacking. My girlfreind recieved the Depo Provera shot, a few days before she was expecting her period, she never got it, and it is now 3 weeks past, i can see how this may be normal, im not sure the exact role of progesterone. The reason i worry is one of pregnancy, allthough i cannot fashion it to be a possibility, anything is supposedly possibly.

It actually took me over another year after my period returned before, I finally became pregnant. The depo-provera shot is extremely effective. So much so, that it actually is a bad choice of contraceptive if you actually want to get pregnant within 2 years of the shot, because it takes that long for your body to return to normal. If you are still unsure, ask her doctor.

To be sure go to a planned parenthood place or to her gynecologist and get a ultrasound done. You can get pregnant on the Depo Provera shot.

I missed a dose of Depo provera by 7 days now. I know that I am not pregnant due to no intercourse. My question is do I still have to wait until I get a cycle? What if I dont have a cycle for several months, in the past my cycle was abnornal to begin with. If I have the depo without being on my cycle will I still be protected? I started the depo Aug. 2008. And had never missed a dose until this time. My dose was due May 1, 2009. Can anyone help me with this???

I have been receiving the birth control Depo-Provera since the end of January, 2016. However, I was due for an appointment September 24th, 2016. However there is a supposed two week window in which Depo-Provera is supposed to be effective and that window ended October 8th, so just a few weeks ago. However, I got back on birth control 4 days after this two week window ended on October 12th.

I've been on depo provera for 15 years and my periods stopped right away. I'm 45 years old and just had a period that lasted 5 days. My question is whether or not depo provera is still working as my birth control choice? Is there a way to know if depo provera is no longer working and if I may get pregnant?

I was depo shot for almost a year and got pregnant while on it. Just dont give up and keep trying!!!

Does antibiotics lessen the effect of depo? What are the chances of getting pregnant while on antibiotics and taking depo?

The whole point of the provera is to kick start a period.. Its doesn't have "withdraw bleeding. I was told that if I hadn't gotten a normal period in 2 weeks to go back as something could be wrong. But luckily.. My period started that night without the meds .

I think i am pregnant but i am on the depo provera shot. Is that possible and if it is will the shot affect the fetus? I would be a month and some now and i have been having unprotected sex for two months.

i decided to not go on any other birth control for awhile. What are the side effects of coming off the Depo Provera and is it ok to not be on any birthcontrol at all for awhile??

s possible you could be pregnant, I got pregnant while on the pill, so things happen! And I just looked up Provera harming the baby and I found this; If I become pregnant on the pill or on Provera will it harm my baby? The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology has done studies to prove that the pill does not cause fetal abnormalities if taken during pregnancy. Of course, you should stop taking the pill as soon as possible when you find out you are pregnant.
