I didn't get pregnant while on depo, i had it for about two years, I came of it and conceived within about 3 months, it does take a while to come out of your system. I realise that it alters the natural way of the body but i found it good for me and other people do too. Also you dont have the worry of missing pills etc.

I personally don't feel nor do I think the Depo injection is a good alternative for birth control because it doesn't let the woman have a natural menstral cycle besides there are other methods of birth control!

It is possible to become pregnant on the Depo shot. My best friend got pregnant with her 4-year-old daughter on it. This is why I would strongly recommend using a back-up method of birth control, like a condom or spermicide. But just remember, not one birth control method is 100 percent effective...the only one that is is abstinence.

The depo and I got on very well no weight gain except in the bust!! No spots etc. It doesn't work for everyone so you have to see for yourself. however i know 2 people who got pregnant while on it. Its not 100% nothing is!

I was on the depo shot for nearly 4 years. My husband and i never used condoms while i was on the shot and i never did become pregnant.
Once i stopped taking the shot to become pregnant i did so 11 months later.
I do not know anyone who became pregnant on the shot.
I think that you cannot get pregnant on it. Maybe that person you are talking about was pregnant before she got on the shot and it was too early to show up on a pregnancy test.
They always do a urine test on you before they give you the shot every 3 months. Or was she late getting her shot?
I just don't believe that you can get pregnant on it.

I was on the depo for about a year but come off it coz i put weight on mind you it was not alot. i was told my the nures before getting it that when i come off it will take about 1 to 2 years to get pregnant. i come off it in may 06 and went back on the pill i found out i was pregnant in the aug 06 so with it ment to take a year to come out your system and being on the pill i should have been double protected but no lol

You should start by not wanting to get pregnant, just have sex everyday or every other day and don't think about getting pregnant, just have fun with your partner. Get more useful information and guides to get pregnant herehttps://tr.im/JOLLY
after sex-put a pillow under your butt or prop your feet up on the wall so your pelvis is tilted
eat healthy
back off caffiene
workout, even if its just a 20 minute walk a day, be active.

Definately didn't get pregnant, but have gone from slim and slender to a beached whale in the space of 3 months-not recommended.

It's possible just like any other contraceptive...depo is just harder on your body than the other two non pill alternatives...the patch and my girlfriends (and mine) favorite, the Ova ring...can't even tell it's there during intercourse
