Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
1] Firstly do not panic.
2] If you are taking depo shots at regular intervals, you need not worry even if you have periods. You are protected from getting pregnant.
3] Any way if you had sex on the last day of periods you stand no chance of getting pregnant, as day 10 to 20 of the cycle is the most fertile period of the cycle.
4] Please do not miss the scheduled date for the depo shot.

I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
Dr Purushottam
