If you had your shot on the regular shot, then the chances for you to get pregnant are very slim.  There are many of us on here who have tried for months and sometimes years to get pregnant due to the negative side effects of the depo shot.  I regret ever going on it.    

I honestly do not think you have anything to worry about as long as everything was on schedule.

I hope that gives you some reassurance.

Take care,

Amanda

I am 7 weeks pregnant and it was planned. I was on the depo-provera shot and it took me 7 months after getting off of it to conceive. According to the facts about the depro-provera shot, it can take up to 1 year to get pregnant after your last shot but, everybodies body is different. If you are not a fast breeder like myself, then you should be fine. Hope I was of some help. Good Luck!!!!
