well that was a scare, took another tset and it was neg, but i also cant get my shot now cause of my insurence.........so i might be looking at baby # 4.......

Answer 1

take another test! It is possible to get a false positive, but it is rare. It might be a false positive if you have a cyst or let the test sit out for too long after taking it (over 10 minutes, it is invalid). If you get another positive, see your dr.

Answer 2

You need to go to a doctor ASAP. HCG hormone the one that turns a pregnancy test positive does not take 9 wks to get out of your system no matter how far along you were. The longest it should take is about 4-6 wks and even thats a little long. It sounds like you are either pregnant again or they did not get all the fetal tissue out. If they didnt get all the fetal tissue out it can lead to really bad infections that can be life threatening. I would deff see a doctor. By the way if you just had an abortion and are suspecting a new pregnancy you should really practice safer sex. Having many abortions is not only irresponsible and expensive but be harmful and cause scaring in your uterus. GL and hope this helped

the depo shot stops working in 3 months. your hormones are going crazy. it is possible but the box pregnancy test is useless if you on any strong birth control. it is possible that you are but if you are you willl not carry the baby for more than 5 months. i was on depo shot once before. it wasn't worth it. the crazy stuff that happens after the 3 months is crazy it took me no less then 6 months for my body to start acting right again. i am now on pills and it is much better then the shot. i was told all of this about the possibilities of carrying a child and what to expect before i took the shot. getting pregnant while on the shot was rated 0.03 if not mistaken. hope this helps.

Answer 4

I had a friend who was pregnant on the shot...she had to have tests in the beginning to make sure the pregnancy was viable. I don't mean to scare, just prepare yourself. It's possible to become pregnant on the shot. She was actually very very early in her pregnancy and she then got the shot, so just go for the serum blood test for HcG.

Answer 5

You could always get another test to see what that one says. If both are the same results good chances you are. But the best thing to do is see your doctor.

Answer 6

YES IT HAPPENS!!! I have been on the depo shot for 4yrs,since my first daughter was born and I am now pregnant with my 3rd child.2 pregnancies on depo I will not be taking it again.I'm better off getting my tubes tied.

Answer 7

It is possible because the depo is not 100 percent affective in preventing pregnancy-- i would say give it a couple days, try again and if u still feel the same see your doctor!!

Answer 8

No method is 100% effective except abstinence. Take another test, if positive - congrats and call your doctor.

Answer 9

you probably are, take another...my friend has been on depo for three years and got pregnant this past april - didn't find out until she was 14 weeks that she was pregnant because she never got her period on the shot...the doc blames it on an antibiotic she'd been on while being on the shot.

Answer 10

Any kind of result is a positive result, test again to make sure.
