Family Planning Plus

Yes, pregnancy is possible. However, after stopping the Depo shot, it can take up to six months for you to start ovulating and having regular periods again (for a few women, it can take up to two years). Therefore, it is more likely that you are skipping your period because of your recent Depo use. However, if you feel as though you are pregnant, repeat the test every two weeks until you have a normal period or a positive test result. You can also contact your regular medical care provider and request a blood test for pregnancy.
