Am I pregnant?

I have recently felt really strange lately, I have weird head aches one which felt like pressure on my brain and I'm not normally one to suffer head aches, I've recently been extremely tired, had light cramps and spotting which is very strange as I am taking provera 100g as I suffer bad period and don't ovulate but have done research and apparently high doses of provera can create your body to do so, I have also noticed I am getting a bit of acne and get hot and cold sometimes.. I feel like i may be pregnant and there is a possibility but I also feel like I am over reacting and it could just be my body.. Please let me know I'm a little scared of doing a pregnancy test as I am worried what the outcome will be...

I was pregnant after my first time with my boyfriend and he pulled out. This is not a safe method for avoiding pregnancy.

We had unsafe sex on on October 20 and I discovered I was pregnant after feeling my breasts hurting, peeing a lot, and missing my period for the beginning of November. It was the beginning of Novemeber when I took the test and it was positive.

If your period has never been regular I would just take a test now. If it is negative but you still feel like you may be pregnant wait a week and take another one. You can even go to your doctor and ask for a blood test.

Good luck

I'm not on depo provera I am just taking the tablet everyday. I haven't missed a tablet and I'm  on the highest does to stop bleeding, and I would not have a clue when my period would occur in the month as I was all over the place and had extremely long ones such as 48days. Yeah I had unsafe sex but he pulled out a little while before anything happend... how long after falling pregnant would I start to have symptoms though? I'm just do confused as I don't know my body because it's never been normal and I can't tell whether it's side effects from provera tablet ( but ive been on it for 2 months now) or signs of pregnancy :/

Have you been having unsafe sex?
How long have you been on depo provera? They tell you to still use condoms for, I believe, 7 weeks after you begin the shots.
Were you late with your latest shot?

I have had friends complain about spotting after starting depo (I didn't have any) so I do not think that is something to be especially alarmed about.

If there is a possibility that you may be pregnant you should think about when your period used to occur (beginning or end of month) and take a test if that time has passed.

I actually was late with my shot (due Nov and didn't get it until Dec) so I am taking a test Jan 13 (my period was always the beginning of the month). Good luck!
