Q: Pregnant After Depo?

I was wondering if when depo is wearing off it makes you feel truly pregnant? I've been on depo since my daughter was born in december...And I skipped my last shot in august...For the past few months i've been bleeding a little(b/c of depo) so I have no clue when i'd be able to take a test for it or if it would even show up...I really do feel pregnant...But with my last pregnancy I knew before it showed up on a test. Ahhh! What should I do!?!? I'm going crazy not knowing...I've been feeling pregnant for over a week now...And it's still not testing positive...Someone say something please!!

Depo screwed me up royally, I thought I was pregnant and actually ended up pregnant, talk about irony. My suggestion would be to get some bloodwork done instead of hpt test just to make sure things are ok!

Depo

I would go to ur doctor, the depo provera injection messed me up! I didnt bleed for 3 years after comming off it then I found out I was pregnant with my son who is now 19mnths old, I also have poly-cystic ovary syndrome which I am certain has something to do with the depo,
good luck hun xxxxxxxx

cysts are common and are not due to the shot.
