Expert: - 7/11/2010


Question
I got my 1st depo shot Jan.20,2010. I was due 3 months later but never went. I finally got my period back now (june 9th). IS it safe to say im ovulating again? Also, can I get pregnant now?

Answer
I can't tell you for sure if you are ovulating but in my opinion, you could be because of having your period now. I'm glad to hear that you went off the depo shot. I have heard bad reports of this method of birth control. Are you trying to get pregnant? Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com so we can talk more and discuss this. Hope to hear from you very soon.
