How Long Should I Wait To Do Sex After Depo Shot?

Hi, I got my 4th depo shot at the beginning of week 14, was I still protected the entire three months? Or did I need to wait Til my next shot to be fully protected again? Some sites are saying wait a week and you are protected Others say wait Til next shot, I am confused. Help?

Hello,

You have used double protection too much and it is not necessary. You should have used condoms only for 7 days after the first shot.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
