Is Pregnancy Possible After Taking Depo Injections?
Hello, I was taking depo injections. I took 3. My last one was in October. I started pills in December. I took pills for 2 weeks and stopped due to allergic reaction. My last cycle was January 5. It lasted 10 days. it has been 36 days since. I took a urine pregnancy test that was negative Monday 2/7/2017. Could I be pregnant or is there some other possibility. I had a pap smear 1/16/2017.

Hello,
You can go for a beta HCG test to check whether you are pregnant or not.
Once the pregnancy has been ruled out you can wait one more week for spontaneous bleeding.
If periods are delayed long, you can consult a gynecologist and start on hormonal pills to induce bleeding.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
