Is Pregnancy Possible While On Depo-Prover Shots?
My Dr gave me the depo prover injection in the hope of stopping my periods while we do a big trip in Africa. It seemed to work for a few weeks but I have now had my period for 6 weeks. Are there any other options for me to try. I have migraine with aura which is why I can t take the normal pill

Hello,
Yes, all contraceptive measures do have failure rates. So pregnancy is possible in your case. So if you are not having your period then you should definitely get done a urinary pregnancy test.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
