I had a misscarriage about 3 wks ago. I
had sex at the end of the whole
thing(unprotected)about 2wks later i took
a pregnancy test and it was positive.
About a week later i went to the doctor
and he put me on the shot!!what does this
mean!! I dont know for sure if i was
pregnant to begin with but if i was, what
has this shot done? is there a possibility
that i might still be pregnant?

You may have had a positive pregnancy test
because of leftover hormones in your body.
How far along were you in your pregnancy?
Was it a confirmed miscarriage by the
doctor, or did you just assume it was a
miscarriage because you bled? Although
rare, some women can bleed during
pregnancy and maybe you are one of the few
who do. Did you tell your doctor about
your positive pregnancy test before he
gave you the shot?

Pregnancy tests stay positive for 3-4
weeks after an abortion or miscarriage, so
it sounds reasonable that your test showed
up positive.
It is HIGHLY unlikely that you were
actually pregnant, BUT the shot is not an
abortion, and does not kill the fetus.
