Is The Delayed Period A Side Effect Of Switching Of Birth Controls?

Hi I was on microgestin for a about five months and then had a two week break with no birth control and started the depo shot on May 22. I had sex on May 29th, but he said he didn t ejaculate inside me. I was supposed to get my period the week of May 31, but have et to get it. So my question is, do you think that is just a side effect of switching birth controls, or do you think I could be pregnant?

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concern. You can easily check pregnancy with HCG sticks like preganews and get your doubts clear. Depo shots may cause menstrual irregularities and missed periods.
