Q: 17 on depo shot possibly pregnant

I'm 17 years old, and I'm on the depo shot. I've been on the shot for 2 months now, and I know that it takes away a regular cycle, but I'm concerned. I'm over 2 weeks late, and I'm having weird cravings and I'm getting moody. I've talked to my boyfriend and told him that I'm late. He insists that I take a test as soon as possible, but I have absolutely no money to buy a test. What do I do?

Go to Planned Parenthood and they will give you a free test. Best of luck!

You can even buy a test at a dollar store and tell your bf to get you one.

Your symptoms are typical for someone who is new to the depo shot. If they are out of control (particularly your moodiness) then you may want to speak with a doctor before getting your second shot.
