if im not pregnant how can i? take prenatles? i only got 1 depo shot so there has to be a way
Hi there,
Thanks for the query.
First, let me stress that you are not protected from pregnancy as you just had a single shot of depo that you took in october last year. The effects last only for 3 months. If you didn't continue the shots, then you are unprotected.
Having said that, your period came on may 31st. You are now in the fertile period.
You cannot be pregnant yet. But if you do want to concieve then now would be the optimum time to try.
Try the natural way for a few months. In a regular 28 day cycle,your fertile period would be between day 11-17.
You could be experiencing mid cycle ovulation pain right now,which is a good sign if you want to concieve.
No need to take prenatal meds yet. But do improve your general condition with a balanced diet,weight control and exercise.
Hope I have answered your query adequately. Should you have any additional concerns, I am available for follow ups.
Regards,
