Hello,
Thanks for writing to us. If you are due for the deposhot and did not get it, you are no longer protected. Though return of ovulation can take some time and thus you are safe, you still have to exclude pregnancy through the blood test. Hormone imbalance is another possible cause. A trans-vaginal sonogram will clarify. Hormone assay may be needed if the disturbances persist. Please get proper clinical evaluation and plan further management. Hope this helps.
