Ok Need Some Help
Posted: 01-19-06 00:03am

Ok well my gf and I had sex the other night for the first time. She is on depo and has been for around 7-8 months. Being cought up in the moment I came inside her. Being very nervouse I advised her to get the morning after pill. Two days later she took the map. I was just wondered what are the chances of her being preganat and I guess looking for a little info. She told me that when her 3 months ( on the shot) is up the she had a period. This really worried me and I was wondering if that was maybe just spotting? Any help is appreciated

She is not pregnant. Depo is a reliable form of birth control, as long as she gets the shot every three months. There wasn't even a need for her to take the map. I'm assuming her period was probably just breakthrough bleeding since she had just finished one shot and got another one.
Please please please remember that birth control only protects you from pregnancy. Use condoms to prevent stds.
In addition, you said that you came inside her and are worried that she could be pregnant - well, even if you pulled out before you came, there is a little thing called precum, and it has semen in it, and girls do get pregnant from that. So remember that in the future. But she is on birth control so you don't have to worry about that.

Also some women do stop their periods on depo some do not.. Regardless of whether she has a period or not, as long as she gets her shot every 3 months she is allright!!!
