Most doctors will tell you 30 days, just to be absolutely sure. Better safe than sorry.

When you go in for your shot, ask the doctor or nurse. They will tell you. :)

Depo-Provera can require up to fourteen days to take effect. This means pregnancy can occur within fourteen days of the first Depo injection.
Takes seven days to take effect if given after the first four days of the period cycle. Effective immediately if given during the first four days of the period cycle.
