You can start the shot at any time if you're on the pill, with no break in protection.
Your doctor should let you switch back to the pill right away, when i went off of the depo i started my pack of pills the day my depo shot ran out, maybe you should go to a different doctor
You can switch forms of birth control to what is most comfortable for you. If you would like to switch birth control consult your physician so that she/he can choose a birth control pill that is right for you.
To switch from the birth control pill to Depo PRovera, just get the shot at any time without missing your scheduled birth control pills. You'll have immediate protection from the day of the shot, as long as you took the pills as scheduled in the weeks before.
It is definitely safer to switch from the birth control to the shot, as you have protection throughout. If a woman on the birth control pill gets a Depo Provera injection, she will have immediate protection against pregnancy. If a woman not on birth control pills gets a Depo Provera injection, she may have a delay in protection, depending on where she was in her menstrual cycle.
The new birth control method may be immediately effective, or there may be a delay, depending on the change. For instance, if changing from the pill, patch, ring or shot to the pill, patch, ring or shot, you have immediate protection as long as you aren't starting the new method later than you were supposed to start the next cycle of the old one. Talk to your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.
way too long, don't get shot
Hitler did not use poison. He shot himself!!
With English like that, best to keep taking the pill
The birth control pill and shot can't be compared in terms of "strength," as they contain different ingredients. The shot is more effective as it's harder to goof up.

It is easy to change from the pill to the patch. Just start the patch at any time and you'll have immediate protection, as long as you start it on or before the day you were supposed to start your next pack of pills.
