I have been on depo for the last 2 yrs and about 3 months ago got off. Last month I got my first period and had unprotected sex with my boyfriednd. I am currently late about 9 days. I also recently got sick and the doctor had put me on steroids. I took at test the day I was supposed to get my period and it came up negative. I am wondering if the steroids has anything to do with my period being late or if I am possibly pregant.

Please help.

This is a confusing situation...It could be either one...Have you taken another test since the last one....I think you should take another one...It has been 9 days and I don't the steroids would delay your period that long...Let us know what happends......

I would have your Dr. Do a blood test for you. Also, sometimes after coming off birth control, your periods can take up to six months to regulate themselves. Take another test, then go in for blood work.
