Is Contraceptive Pill Necessary After Sex While On Depo-Provera Shots?

Hi, I had unprotected sex yesterday. However , he didn t cum inside of me and I have been on the depo shot for quite some time now. I have the morning after pill, should I take that just in case? Or am I okay? I heard pre cum can still make you pregnant.

Hello,
You do not need to take the morning after pill if you are on depo shots and have gotten them regularly. Depo is a good protection against pregnancy.
Consider condoms for protection against infections.
