Hi,
* The period by how much month late is important to be considered in delayed depo shot.
As if you are not much late than a gap of 10-15 days, you are still in a coverage era of the previous depot shot, but if its beyond period of 1 or couple of months, effects of the same has been vanished and make you at risk of pregnancy.
Kindly consult your OBGY for evaluation of altered hormone axis or possible pregnancy threat.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
