effect.......Is it more protective against
preganancy than other b.C.....?I had sex
with my girlfriend after 10-12hrs. After
her getting the shot should I be ok?....

The shot it pretty good I was on it for
two years and had unprotected sex all the
time and never got pregnant. But there
are some women out there that has gotten
pregnant while on the shot. I think it
all depends on the womans body and if they
get the shot on time every threee months

Again, tell your girlfriend to ask her
doctor.
I am on depo and i'll tell you what the
doctor told me. I'm just repeating my
doctor's info, but I could be wrong so
just please tell your grilfriend to ask
her doctor.
You are supposed to recieve your first
depo injection during your period. If
you recieve the injection while you're on
your period you're protected immediately.
Like the second after the nurse sticks
you in the butt with the needle you can go
have unprotected sex and it's supposed to
be okay.
However, if you get your first injection
while you aren't on your period, it can
take up to a month to become protected.
