Well I was on depo the bc shot for about 2
years and I read a lot that many people
got pregnant on the shot and some didnt
even know because when they took the test
somehow the depo would effect the results
and say they werent pregnant and then they
found out that they actually were
pregnant... And I had sex right around
the time I was switching from depo to the
pill, and because this pill also prevents
me from getting my period im not sure if
im pregnant or not because ive had a few
symptoms but it says those same symptoms
can be caused from birthcontrol so im not
sure if im pregnant or not and im scared
that I wont know because I have no way of
knowing if I had a missed period and if
these symptoms are from being pregnant or
from birthcontrol unless I take a test and
ive been really afraid to go and buy one
Well eh u need to buy a test but if u just
had sex id wait at least 3-4 wks or so
before taking a test , or u can go to the
drs and get a blood test to tell u for
sure. But symptoms cant determine if ur
pregnant u get the same ones before your
period starts to in some women

No birth control affects the result of a
pregnancy test.
Only hcg (human chrionic gonadatrophin)
the pregnancy hormone is picked up by a
pregnancy test.
This hormone is only made when a pregnancy
implants (although polycystic ovarian
syndrome can produce a similar hormone I
believe).
But not birth control.

I am in much of the same boat so to say,
except I now know I am pregnant. I was
in the process of switching from the depo
shot to pills because the shot had been
causing some serious problems. I hadn't
had a period in a year and a half. I
have yet to get one... I was told by my
Dr. That I could be irregular for upwards
of 2 yrs till my body figured itself out.
I was also told it would be nearly
impossible to become pregnant and/or carry
to full term. I didn't even know I was
pregnant... No morning sickness, no
spotting. I gained a little weight, but
thought it was because I had a different
job that didn't allow for as much exercise
and a change in my metabolism. I never
tested positive till now... At 4
months... And only because I went in to
have my thyriod checked because I wasn't
loosing the weight. I would advise you
to go to a doctor... Even a clinic and
voice your concerns... A simple
ultrasound can confirm/disprove your
suspicions.
