Depo shot

I'm sorry to ask this but I'm a little worried.
I had one Depo shot about 6 months ago and I haven't had a period since then. I thought it would have returned by now as I only had the one injection I never went back for the second as I was no longer sexually active. Is this normal or should I take a pregnancy test?

I'd say unlikely and birth control can affect periods but maybe just test in case

I've known 2 women (not overweight) who were 6 months pregnant when they found out. Neither first child either. Take a test
