Hi
although all the contraceptive methods are quite reliable but none is 100% including the depo.
you can ask the clinic to repeat the test in aweek's time , given that you had a few positives they shouldbe willing to do that. But if you are really worried you can get a blood test called beta Hcg as well. This blood test will give you a confirm result.
Thanks
