Hi.. the effect of depoprovera last for 3 months.. After 3 months there is chance of pregnancy.. If your shot had crossed 3 months it would be better to get a pregnancy test.. Hope I have answered your query. Good day.

Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Pain in the lower abdomen can be due to pelvic inflammatory disease, which can occur if you have unprotected intercourse.
Irregular spotting is a common side effect of depo provera injection, however local lesions in the cervix and vagina should be ruled out.
I would suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined, investigated and treated accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
