*UPDATE ON DEPO CONCERN*

Julie

So I’ve been doing my research and asking around to other females who have been on depo. I’ve contacted my doctor and asked for blood testing to be done. Before I got on depo, I had unprotected sex during my fertility period with my boyfriend (keep in mind I’m infertile and have PCOS/endometriosis). I went on depo because it would calm his mind about not worrying about kids, and I heard it helps with the pains of endometriosis (big plus since I have stage three endometriosis). I’ve been on depo almost a month now, and last week I noticed I hadn’t got my period (something my doctor said I would get on time and wouldn’t be effected till my second shot), and so I took some pregnancy tests. They all came back negative, but I wasn’t getting my period, and I began having several symptoms of pregnancy. I also have been having brown discharge which has been said to mean implantation! I found that depo tends to cause false negative tests, and it would be recommended a blood test be done.

Has this happened to any of you ladies where you got pregnant and were on depo??? I have a history of miscarriages and am hoping this won’t hurt the baby if I was pregnant. I NEED HELP CALMING MY NERVES TILL I CAN GET A BLOOD TEST!!!!
