The second part to my question is this month I have been have having a lot of pregnancy symptoms sore breasts, fatigue, cravings, that I haven t had before. And my shot is due October 2nd. Could I be pregnant?

Hello ma'am and welcome.

Seeing your periods does not necessarily mean you are ovulating, it would although be wise to visit your doctor regarding the same. The symptoms you are experiencing could be due to a hormonal imbalance, although I would recommend the use of other forms of contraception until you can visit your doctor like condoms.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
