Has anyone here ever experienced (or knew anyone that experienced) becoming pregnant while on depo-provera? If so, how did you know you were pregnant since most women don't get their period while on depo?

I have never known anyone who got pregnant on depo-provera but I did have a friend who took 2 shots (6 months worth) and then her and her husband decided they were going to try to conceive. She did not get her period for a year after the shot. They started trying 3 years ago and are still trying, so I would think it would be pretty hard to get pregnant on the shot. Good Luck and I hope you get the answer you are looking for.
