My boyfriend and I are trying to get pregant but I have been on the shot for over a year?

Question

You have to get the shot every 3 months and for me Aug is my 3 month. But lately I've so tired, I've had the runs just wondering if anyone thinks I may be pregant already

Answer 1

I used to be on Depo Provera. The shot does have side effects that make you feel like as if you are pregnant. I suggest that if you are trying to conceive... then get off the shot. Most of the time it will take you years after you get off the shot to become pregnant. Some of my friends used to be on Depo Provera for 2 years... been off of it for 1 year and still are uncapable of becoming pregnant. If you are still wondering if you are pregnant or not... then wait a few weeks and take a test before your next shot... if you take it and are actually pregnant... it will make the baby very, very sick and you run a high risk of losing it. Good luck!!

Answer 2

I am not sure if you are pregnant now..but I know that I had been on the shot for a while, and I got pregnant (I am due in November) about 2 months into the dose..maybe a faulty dose?

Answer 3

Save yourself the hurt. If he's not committed enough to marry you, he's not committed enough to have a child with you. I'm not trying to be mean or hurt your feelings here: I'm hoping you'll listen so your child's feelings aren't hurt later on.
