It could certainly be stress related. I have been on the pill for years and stress can still alter things a bit.
How long have you been on the shot? Do you get it on time?
A lot of women do not get their period on depo.

Have you ever had a talk with the doctor about Depo?
This is well known that most women won't get periods while on depo. Some DO bleed for months at a stretch, and some DO have regular periods, but most will never bleed.
Please read up on depo provera:

also google "depo provera class action lawsuit".
You could also be pregnant, as NOTHING is 100% effective, including depo (I know girls who've gotten pregnant on it).

It's probably stress related to work, school, personal life, It can be a number of things.
I've been late on my period up to 2 weeks, and I know I couldn't be pregnant since I have a hard time conceiving after my accident. It was all related to stress. Give it a couple of days more, if nothing, go to a Dr and have it checked
Best of Luck :)

it's most likely the stress...but remember never ever ever think that you CAN'T get pregnant just because you're using two methods of birth control together. NO form, except for abstinence, is 100% foolproof, even if you use two together there's ALWAYS that small chance to get pregnant. With that it really doesn't sound like your pregnant, probably just the stress, take a test to put your mind at ease if you want...that may even relieve some of that stress! :D Good luck!

Stress can defenitley cause irregular periods. If you are paranoid to the point of not being able to handle it, take a preg test to set yourself straight. You have to remember that there always is a possiblity of pregnancy even on 2 forms of contraceptives.
It defenitley could be stress, or other factors. Ask your doctor if it gets later and later.
Good luck..

When I was on Depo, it completely stopped my period. try to destress yourself and keep waiting. If you dont get it in a week or so, go to your dr. But it could just be that the depo stopped it.
P.s. there is nothing wrong with the depo stopping it. Thats just what it does to some ppl.
good luck

I was on the depo shot for 3 years and never had a period while I was on it. That's one of the nice things about depo...it stops the period! I have been off it since Jan and still haven't had a period. I LOVE IT!
