Anyone been or is on the birthcontrol shot? Can you still get pregnant?

Q: I took the depro evra birth control shot for the first time on DECEMBER 21ST 2005. I was due for it again MARCH 14TH. I didnt go because I was out of town. I had un protected sex the friday saturday and sunday before MARCH 14TH. Im spotting really lightly. Do you think I will end up pregnant? Do you think theres a possibility? My period comes on a differend day every month so I couldnt tell you nothing about that. THINK HARD AND HELP ME. IF I AM PREGNANT I WOULDNT MIND SO DONT TRY TO HOLD NOTHING IN TO KEEP FROM SCARING ME. ALSO IM OLD ENOUGH AND READY. JUST BRIMG IT AND LEST ME KNOW. KEEP IT REAL.

A: There is never a 100% protection. Yes you could be pregnant but then again your body may just be coming off the side effects of the depro evra. I quit the pills and a week later I was pregnant. I was thinking that it would take a few months to conceive. Some women it will take up to a year for their body to dispel all the depro from their system. Just depends on how your body reacts to this medication.
