Brief Answer:
Chances of pregnancy are there.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Since you are off the shot for last 2 months the chances of pregnancy are there. If your periods are late then it is best to check your urine for pregnancy using a home pregnancy kit.
To be very sure you can get your blood HCG levels evaluated.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
