Hi,

In the current scenario, the spotting can mean an impending period mostly. Return of ovulation after the depo shot can take up to 6 to 8 weeks and hence conception soon after the wearing off of the dose is rare. Also, home pregnancy test can read well only after 3 to 7 days after the missed period. To clarify, you can get the blood test for pregnancy and also go for the transvaginal sonogram.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shanti Vennam
