Should I Be Worried About The Unprotected Sex After Depo Shot?
Hi. I am to take Amox/k clav 875-125 for a sinus infection, starting asap. I have been on the depo shot for 3 years with no trouble. I had unprotected sex within 24 hours. I hear antibiotics can inhibit birth control. I hear sperm can live up to 3-5 days inside. Should I be concerned?

Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
There is nothing to worry.
Depo shot basically interferes with ovulation and thus no fear of unwanted pregnancy.
