waiting for depo shot after missing Posted: 01-28-08 14:31pm
i recently missed my depo shot. the last
week i could get it was the last week in
november. i have a GYN appt tmrw and i
wanted to know what the dangers would be
to get the shot before my period came back
on. the woman at planned parenthood told
me i should wait but didnt give me a
reason. i still have not received a period
and was wonder why exactly i had to wait?
i guees im a little nervous becuase i dont
want to "mess" anything up if you know
what i mean, i would like to have children
in the future. help please!!

Maybe she just wanted to make sure you
weren't pregnant? That's all I can think
of. It's normal for your period to take a
while to return after depo.
I don't really think it's "dangerous"

I'm in a similar boat. I left my
prescription up here in NY when I went on
vacation in Florida, and my next shot was
in December. So I've been off since about
Dec 22. I have not gotten a period yet -
and that's okay!! It's not "dangerous".
Well actually I had some spotting for 2
hours a couple of weeks ago
I'm just waiting for some money from my
parents so I can go buy the next
prescription and get it injected. Woo,
gotta love that burn...
