Is It Possible To Pregnant While Having Spotting?
I Have Been On The Depo For Years Now, But This Last Time For My Appt. they gave me to different dates on when I was supposed to get it. And the first date they gave me my shot was supposed to run out and Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex. Then I called and they gave me a different date. I ve been spotting for 2weeks. I have been feeling sick when I wake up. Could I be pregnant even though I m spotting? Or am I just over worried.

Hello,
I am understanding from your description that you did not have protection from pregnancy when you had sex and now you are experiencing spotting.
It is possible to have little spotting around your expected period's time when you are pregnant. It is called implantation bleeding. If 15 days have passed since your unprotected sexual intercourse, you should take a home pregnancy test with the first urine of the morning. If 6-10 days have passed, blood pregnancy test will be more confirmatory.
If you are experiencing spotting in absence of pregnancy, then you should consult a gynecologist for further investigations and treatment.
I hope this answer helps you. Thank you for choosing HCM. Take care.
Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
