is it possible I could be pregnant??

Hello!
I know iit's very unlikely that I might be but just thought I would ask in case anyone has experienced this and wound up being pregnant!
So I was on depot last year for six months. Came off it for a while and started it up again not too long ago. I got my latest shot on the 8th or 7th of this month, nearly a week later than I should have. Now coming up to being on it for seven months this time round.
For the last two weeks I have had the worst symptoms. Nausea often, definitely every time I've eaten, headaches, compete exhaustion and mad cravings for things I don't even like! Not to mention being ridiculously irritated, angry and wanting to cry nonstop.
In the past, every time after shot, I have had irritation, the wanting to cry and mild cramps - that's it. BOTH times I've been on it.
I took a pregnancy test like a week ago and it came back negative.
My boyfriend and I are extremely active in the bedroom, having unprotected sex AT LEAST twice every day, often much more.
I have been pregnant before (abortion) and I feel exactly as I did then.
Do you think it's possible I may be pregnant?
Thanks in advance :)

I really doubt it.  Really.  You've had negative tests and depot for a long time.  And in truth, having sex frequently like that decreases your odds of pregnancy.  (to get pregnant, the best thing to do is sex every other day because more than that decreases sperm count). Hormones shift and that can feel like pregnancy symptoms because pregnancy symptoms early on are shifting hormones.  Then the real pregnancy symptoms kick in at about 6 to 7 weeks as the growing fetus creates the pregnancy hormones that we think of like nausea, etc.  If you are concerned, really, the only thing you can do is a doctors visit.  You can talk about your birth control and do a blood test.  But I'm guessing you aren't pregnant.  But never say never.  good luck
