Question
i have symptoms of being pregnant i had the depo shot in february i missed my second shot i have had unprotected sex and still have no period i also took a home pregnancy test and came out negative can i still be pregnant

Answer
Hi Nihcole,

Thanks for your question. Yes, you can be pregnant and the test was too early. But I can't tell you over the internet if you are pregnant. You can get a free test at a local pregnancy center. You can find a center at http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP.
Or try http://www.heartbeatinternational.org/worldwide_directory.asp

Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com so we can talk more by email. So hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
