Hi, I think you can do a urine pregnancy test at home to rule out pregnancy. But it is common to have irregular periods after stopping the depo shot. You can have spotting in between as well as sore nipples and mood changes as well. It will take few months to regularise periods and these symptoms to wean off. You can consult a gynecologist for some hormonal treatment to regularise periods for now. Hope I have answered your question.
