No protection is 100% safe.
Yes there would be a slight possibilty but its always better to be extra careful in such a case. Unprotected sex is not recommended.
Ayways, if you feel tht you could be pregnant, conduct a home pregnancy test and find it out. If not sure, check with ur doctor.
Hope I helped.

No contraceptive is 100% protective (okay maybe not having sex at all but look what happened to Mary) to it is possible. My sister just found out she was pregnant and she has been on Depo-Provera ever since her first child...even though it is every rare theres a chance you missed one or took it too late...either way you should get a preganacy test because taking it while you are pregnant could result in a premature baby

The only 100% effective method is abstinence. So ANY birth control method besides that is a chance to become pregnant.
Depo really screws with women's health. After five years you need a bone density check because it affects your bone health. You could have a period at any time or not at all (I never had a period while on Depo but I've spotted at odd times).

anything is possible.....and sickness and tiredness could be pregnancy or just the flu. Other symptoms is breast tenderness, implantation spotting and bloating.
And the only thing that totally protects you from getting pregnant is Abstinence

IF YOU'VE HAD UNPROTECTED SEX IT'S A 50/50 CHANCE YOU CAN BE COME PREGNANT. ALWAYS USE A CONDOM. PLUS THE DEPO SHOT DOESN'T HELP PROTECT YOU FROM STD AND AIDS.

Yes, it is very possible. There is NO contraceptive in the world, other than 100% abstinence, that will prevent pregnancy 100%. (Not even tubal ligation or vasectomies).
