I didn't get the depoprovera shot in February 2009 no period since now my breast hurt as if I were pregnant preg test came back neg what are the chances of pregnancy?
Hi, sore breasts are a sign of hormonal changes and could be a sign that you are about to get a period. my last depo was July 2008. For around 2 weeks in the summer (2009) I had really sore and heavy breasts, then started a period. It's one sign your body is returning to its normal cycle. If a pregnancy test was negative it's unlikely you're pregnant. if you don't get a period soon and your breasts are still sore, take another test or go see the practice nurse at your local surgery to be safe and get peace of mind!

Got off birth control at the end of April and have not had a period in a month in a half?
Depending on the type of birth control and how long you were taking it before stopping it can take up to 18 months for your cycles to return to normal. I personally was on depoprovera for 2 years after my first child and after stopping did not menstruate for 13 months afterwords. Later I went back on depo for about a year and it took six months for my periods to begin again after stopping that time. If you are sexually active you should probably take a pregnancy test every two months until your periods begin again as you will ovulate about 2 weeks before your first period and could conceive at that time without realizing it.
