Having taken that may pregnancy tests, I would say no, you are not pregnant. A woman's menstrual cycle can vary, even skip months at a time. I know I went for three months straight without getting mine- yeah, it's scary! If your weight has drastically been changing, that could be a reason for not getting your period. The Deprovera could also have a side effect of missed periods, check with the manufacturer or your doctor. Any other medicine you may be on could complicate your cycle as well. Finally, stress can make you miss periods! If you're stressing out, there's a good chance that the stress itself is causing you to miss your period. There are other extremely rare conditions that could cause you to miss it, but my best guess would be it's the stress. If you still have concerns, go to a doctor or clinic.

Hi!! Just to let you know I had similar symptoms when I was taking the depo shot ( with the discharge and the extended cycle). I really don't think you are pregnant. Unfortunately, people tend to gain weight with the depo shot. I know I did. I also experienced an almost bloated feeling. If you took all of those tests and they all came out negative, chances are that you aren't pregnant. If you still aren't sure though, call your doctor. Maybe the depo shot isn't for you and you could try something else. :)

i was on the depo shot for almost 7 years. for about 6 1/2 of those years, i did not have a single period. what depo does is keeps your body from producing the blood lining that you usually discharge during a period, so it's normal for you not to have a period even as soon as a month after getting the first injection. i wouldn't worry. a word of advice: depo is known to cause low bone density (causing them to become brittle), so be watchful of that. good luck!

After taking that many test i would have to say no that your not. I have been on this shot before and never had a period while on this. So you do not necessarily have to get your period. I would go to the doctor and let him/her know about the situation. They can give you some tablet to stop the bleeding and all should then return to normal. Good Luck and i wish you all the best.

Its depo it is trying to stop your period hence the light flow and since you are not having a regular flow the reason your stomach is sticking out is your bloated and have water rention. Depo has alot of side effects. If you did not research it nows a good time.

Since you've had many pregnancy tests that were all negative and are having your period safe to assume no prenancy and the 3lbs is just normal weight gain or it could be from the depo.Call your doctor and ask if weight gain is a side effect.

you could be pregnant but then again it could be the shot. It makes your period act funny. It actually is supposed to be where you don't get a period. One time getting the shot md my period stay for a whole month
