do a test to make sure, but with the depo it takes ages for them to stop working when i was 3 weeks late for my injection my nurse said that they can last at least a month. if that helps. xxx

Im pretty sure your not pregnant. It takes months for the toxins in the depo to get out ur system. its probably ur AF. Wheni was on the Depo i was on it for 2 years, some of the side effects from the depo have prgnant like symptoms. Hope this helps

the only way to know is to test! so when was your actual last period? And when did you spot last?
