My girlfriend was recently given the depo
prevera shot. She was given the shot a
day or so after her menstrual cycle. We
had sex 10 hours after she was recieved
the shot.......Could she get pregnant...Or
does the shot enter the blood stream and
is effective as soon as it was
given...?....Im startin to get worried..
:?

I was told after my first depo shot I was
suppost to use back up protection for a
week before it would kick in. When was
her last period?

Haha, thats so weird. I was told to get
my shot within the first five days of my
period...And no sooner or later than that.
As well as I was told that its effective
immediately. Which one of our nurses is
lying?

Both of the docs are right, because I
didn't have have mine as I got my period.
I got mine six weeks after I gave birth
and was on it for two years my biggest
regret ever. So in reality they are both
right.
