Hello
You can get the pregnancy after stopping depo shot. Depo shot prevent pregnancy until you are using them. It interfere with fertilization and implantation. So you are protected. Now if you do a unprotected sex then you will become pregnant. If you are feeling symptoms of pregnancy then do a pregnancy test to confirm the pregnancy. You can also consult a doctor and do a ultrasound to confirm it.
Hope this helps
Thanks.
