I am very interested to hear about your experiences. I have been using Depo-Provera since March of 2000. This past December I went to the Dr. because I thought I had a bladder infection and because I was due for my next Depo shot. After hours of testing and and an emergency room visit later, I learned that I was four months pregnant. This means that I had been pregnant for nearly a month when I reciecved my last depo shot. I switched Dr.s at that point (I had been going to a university clinic). My new Dr. is trying, but she has not been able to find much information because this is supossed to be a very rare circumstance. The only information I have found that was any help was the March of Dimes webpage. They have an information service and they will email you articles about the effects of Depo on a developing child. Good luck.
