"
Use

The first shot of Depo Provera is usually given during or a few days after the start of a menstrual period. After 24 hours, the shot is effective birth control for the next 13 weeks. Many women find it useful to schedule their next shot slightly earlier than necessary; if something prevents them from making their appointment, there will be a window of opportunity to receive their next shot.

If you are more than a week late for your shot, use a backup method of birth control for the next two weeks. If you are more than a week late and you have had unprotected sex since your last shot, consider taking a pregnancy test before receiving the next dose. "



This is taken directly from the Depo-Provera wesite and should have been included in the information given to you before you got your first dose.

Edited to fix linking issue

Status: offline 		Greetings,

my sister in law had sex a week after her shot expired and she hadn't got her new one.... now i have a niece.

i'm sure it varies from person to person though... when i stopped getting it i didn't get a period for over a year... doesn't necessarily mean i was "protected" that whole time though.

i would recommend letting your Dr know immediately and go by his/her advice.


best of luck

edited to add, or i could have read siamsa24's post and realized that is probably all the info you need. oops...

Their info don't help me much, I'm not weeks late my shot expired 2 days after sex. They didn't say anything about how effective it is up untill expireing.

Status: offline 		It is true that it can take a year after the shot expires to get pregnant. However, some women will be able to get pregnant immediately. When the shot expires, your body has the potential to ovulate. If you do, and you have sex, you may get preganant. 2 days is low risk, you will most likely not get pregnant. However, it is possible. I would suggest getting a pregnancy test, and if negative, get another shot.
