Question: I got the birth control shot, why is it important to get the shot with in 6days of the 1st day of your period?
Answers:
Because otherwise you might ovulate before you get the shot. If you wait a week after your period starts, it's possible you've already ovulated. Then the shot won't prevent ovulation. Then you'll think you're protected, won't use a condom, and then will get pregnant anyway because the egg was released before you got the shot.
not 100% sure, but i think its so it doesnt mess up the pattern of your peroid? Could be completely wrong though!
