Can you get pregnant on depo provera?

Question

I've been getting my depo shot since December 2007. I want to find out how well it protects against pregnancy. I have been getting sick in the mornings and it stays with me throughout the day. I'm not sure if I'm pregnant or not...i took a digital test and it blinked the hour glass and then it went blank and didn't say anything. So I'm not sure if I am or not...

Answer 1

The only birth control that works 100% of the time is abstinence.  It's possible to get pregnant on any other birth control even though the chances seem slim.  I have a friend with 5 kids.  All of which were conceived while she was on BC.  My advice is to get another test and try again.

Answer 2

My neiphew was a depo baby. The best thing to do is either go to a Planned Parenthood and take a pregnancy test or go to your doc. You will probably want to take a blood test (those are definitive!) Some people dont get signs of pregnancy at all, but usually your b*****s will be tender, your might be on edge/ emotional, and your nipples will turn a darker brown. *good luck with all!
