I Have No Idea About This But...

/one of my friends had sex w/o a condom but it on the shot, she got in three weeks ago.

Is the shot very good? Is there is good chance she is not pregnant?

The shot it effective immediatley she should be perfectly fine...But it also runs out immediatley so make she she gets her next shot on time if she plans on doing it unprotected, I have heard that it stays in your system awhile longer than the 3 months but my stepsister was a day late getting hers and got prego.

Nothing is 100% (well, except abstinence) , my best friend was on b/c and using condoms and still got pregnant and another friend of mine was on the shot and got preg and afterwards they put her on a higher dose and she .S.T.I.L.L got preg again!!!

Ya nothing is 100% but the shot is good-it was the only thing that worked for me-i got preggy twice on the pill and never on the shot. I also miscarried the 2 from the pill so hopefully this one will be a-ok since I was on nothing!

For most people, most contraceptions work. But there is that pesky issue of the "failure rate" both with "correct" and "actual" use.

Which is why around 2/3rd of the people who have abortions were at least trying to use contraception.
