If you become pregnant while using the contraceptive injection, the injection is not known to harm the pregnancy.
Here's a breakdown of what this means, based on available information:
-
No Known Harm: The contraceptive injection is not known to cause any harm to a developing fetus. This is reassuring if you discover you're pregnant while using this method of contraception.
-
Options Available: You have two main options if you become pregnant:
- Continue the Pregnancy: You can choose to continue the pregnancy and discontinue further injections.
- Abortion: You can choose to have an abortion.
In summary, getting pregnant on the injection doesn't pose a known risk to the pregnancy, and you can decide whether to continue the pregnancy or terminate it.
