i just got on the shot on july 7th. it was making me spot almost everyday. i had my period around the middle of august. i had sex (unprotected) on august 28th. i stopped spotting right after that and i havent spotted since. i havent got my period even though you might not get it on the shot but i got it last month but i just got on the shot not that long ago and i know its not 100% effective and u can still get preg but i was just wondering if it sounds like i am. i got pregnant june 3rd and i lost it, im pretty young and thats y i got on the shot. ive been feeling like i did the 1st time i was pregnant. im always tired and my stomach was hurting all last week and i had a cold like last time. but what do u think about this?

can the shot affect pregnancy test results?

It is possible to get preg on Depo since it is formualted for a body weight of 115 pounds. The bigger the girl the less effective the shot is.
Get an OTC preg test and set your mind at ease in about 3 minutes. There is no sense making yourself sick with worry when you can just take a quick test and know for sure.

I got the shot for over 4 years, and just let me tell you, the shot can sometime make your body "think" it is pregnant. Your periods are gonna be wacky too. I had periods like crazy when I first started the shot, so bad they almost made me stop taking... which today I wish they would have! Then all of a sudden I just stopped having periods all together.
Now, it's been 10 years since I've "STOPPED" taking the shot, and I can't get pregnant at all. I still don't have periods, and it's all linked to the shot! Not to mention it made me gain weight, then started causing headaches, and then started making me have anxiety. I wouldn't recommend the shot because of the bad side effects! I also have friends that have taken the shot, and similiar things happened to them as well. It just varies from person to person though. Some people get pregnant right after stopping the shot, and others I know it takes years for them to concieve, and others are like me they can't even if they wanted too.
I don't know anyone first hand that has gotten pregnant while they were on the shot though. But, you never know!! The only way to be sure is to get a test and see. But, it sounds to me like a very normal side effect of the shot.
Good Luck :)
