mark.. Please help..

You can indeed, but you bloat whether you're pregnant or not. A month ago would have placed you around 6 weeks, which is still possible to see on ultrasound. You need a follow up though just to make sure of what is going on. It could go either way, but symptoms alone do not mean you are. Pregnancy symptoms are mimicked and caused by dozens of different problems and conditions.

Well i went about a month ago. To get the ultrasound. And i read that you get bloated around this time.. Not like a baby belly just bloating from gas and food.

I was on the depo for three years almost four. Never got pregnant. Never had a peroid while on it. Got off the depo a couple years ago cuz me n hubby wanted a baby. I haven't been able to get pregnant since I been off. But I have heard of people getting pregnant on it n I guess it happens but it's a low chance my doctor told me n he also its a long term bc. But best of luck. Hope u get ur answers ur lookin for

If you had an ultrasound you would have seen a baby. At the stage you're in now, it would be hard to miss - but you would not yet have a belly from it. At 10 weeks baby is an inch or so long, and your uterus would still be well under your pelvic bone. If you're still concerned about it, go back and tell your doctor you want a beta blood test to check your hCG levels. This will tell you 100% if you're pregnant or not.

I will. Thank you.

Take another test and see your dr if you think you are. I know 4 people who got pregnant in the last 2 years whilst on the depo.

Have you taken a pregnancy test at all? It is possible to fall pregnant on it, but the odds are very low. Depo is a hormonal birth control, and like all birth control has side effects - these are all similar to 'pregnancy' side effects. You can have irregular bleeding, weight gain (extremely common on depo - average is 10 pounds, and many gain 20+) nausea, fatigue, breast tenderness, constipation, headache, diarrhea, mood swings, appetite fluctuations, etc etc.
