How long should I continue taking Deviry for a missed period after unprotected sex, and will this medication affect the accuracy of a pregnancy test if I take one now?

Asked by Female, 29 · 15 days ago

Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) is typically taken for 5 to 10 days to help restart your period. Crucially, Deviry will not affect the accuracy of a pregnancy test, as these tests measure a different hormone (hCG). Since you had unprotected sex, please take a home pregnancy test right away. If the test is positive, or if you are unsure, stop taking the medication and consult your doctor immediately.
