How do you get pregnant if you're on Depo-Provera?
Women can get pregnant on Depo Provera even when used perfectly, because, rarely, breakthrough ovulation can happen. However, the vast majority of pregnancies on Depo Provera happen if a woman does not use a backup method as directed during the first days of using the shot or, more commonly, because she doesn't return as scheduled for the next injection. There is no method of birth control that is 100% effective. If you read the literature on each birth control method you'll find that each has a different efficacy. The ability of a particular method of birth control is determined by measuring the failure rate. If a birth control method is rated at 99%, it means that of 100 couples using the specific method, one will still get pregnant. Whether it is the pill, the shot, condoms, tubal ligation or vasectomy, each method has a related failure rate.
