Hi, Thanks for the query. I will try to satisfy you by the answer. Depot provera is a long acting hormonal contraceptive. It is chracterised by menstrual irregularities / absence. It is active for 3 months from injection. & it takes at least 3-4 months to get the periods with ovulation & regular after stopping the injection. You had stopped injection depot provera from March 25th. starting of ovulating cycle is possible in 3-4 months&June- July ) making pregnancy a rare possibility till then. You had sex on 3rd of May.. ( 13th day of cycle ) , again next period can be late because of effect of injection & this can cause fear of pregnancy. Though it's not possible.. you can test by home pregnancy test after 8 days delay of period. Thanks.
