Yeah there is a good chance! The depo is pretty reliable as long as you get it when you are supposed to. I had a side affect for awhile that I felt sick nausea all that it was from the shot. I don't know if it would have gone away I had to switch BC because of some other problems. (I had been on for about 3 years) Sure hope you are feeling better! If it doesn't go away I would talk to your Dr.

I'm on the depo shot and I know plenty of people that have got pregnant on it. My friend got pregnant on it with twins. IT IS N0T LIKE EVERYONE SAYS. TRUST ME I THINK I'M PREGNANT AND I'M ON IT. AND I KNOW I DONT HAVE THE FLU.

if you get the shot when directed and when youre suppost to get it then you are PROTECTED

stop worrying and calm down
you have a stomach bug
it has only been a week since you had sex so you wouldnt be throwing up right now even if you werent pregnant

The Depo can cause pregnancy symptoms that is why I had to change after 3 years because i was Positive I was pregnant and took home test that said negative but I still went in. I wasn't and never was it was just a reaction my body had to the shot. So you may think you are but very possiable your not. Hope you are feeling better!

Pregnancy symptoms don't show up that quickly. You are probably just sick.

But if you're ever worried, take a test. I keep a supply of them in my bathroom for whenever I'm paranoid and need reassurance. Smile
