How To Confirm Pregnancy?

I received my first depo in the beginning of december. I had a lot of break through heavy bleeding with clots. Doc says it is normal. Got my 2nd depo in March still had break through bleeding and such. Been having unprotected sex. Now i have been sick for 2 weeks, my immune system is down. Ive been puking, breasts are sore, etc. I also have polycystic ovaries and hpv.... just wondering if i should discontinue the depo... and if there is a chance i might be pregnant?

Hi, welcome to Healthcare Magic forum. Medicines esp.injections should be strictly taken under medical supervision. Considering your irregular periods, unprotected sex and nausea and vomiting, there are chances of pregnancy, However to avoid false hopes, its better to have confirmation in the form of either a positive pregnancy test( morning sample of urine preferred) or even better, an ultrasound scan. Only after it is clear whether or not you are pregnant, does the question of Depo arise - to take or not to take. I hope this clears your doubts.
