Depo Shot and Pregnancy: Effectiveness and Risks

Question
is it possible to get preganat on the the depo shot? I heard that you can get pregnant on the pills but what bout the shot?

Answer
Hi Yesenia,

Yes, it's possible to get pregnant on the depo shot. NOTHING is 100% effective against pregnancy, except not having sex at all. The depo shot is 97-99% effective, basically the same statistic as the pill.

Thanks,
