Can I Get Pregnant While Using Petogen Injection?

Hi Doc,

I am currently on the 3 months injection Petogen. I am due for my next injection on the 31st Jan. I am feeling my normal period pains which means I'm obviously ovulating..I want to know if i have intercourse before next week could i possibly fall pregnant?

Thank you!

Hi,     
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. If you are talking about DEPO-PROVERA its unlikely you will become pregnant DEPO-MEDROXY PROGESTERONE ACETATE, you need to take the next shot within 5 days after 3 months, otherwise its contraceptive efficacy is less.
Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!
