I went off depoprovera in july to try to re-regulate my body so my husband and I can start a family. I've had two periods now, but no pregnancy yet. Does anyone know if you can have a period but not yet be ovulating??? I'm just wondering how long it takes before my body is back to normal. Question

Amy,

i have read in some reports that it takes a yr to get pregnant after depo provera because it is still in your system. I believe this because I was on depo provera for almost 3yrs. I got off it in sept 02 I didnt start a period into march 03 and I am 9 wks pregnant now so yeah it take a yr for some women but I had a friend who got pregnant a month after getting off depo provera.

Depro And Pregnancy

Hey amy

i was on the depro injections for 7 years and it took me about 10 months for me to fall pregnant. Unfortunately I miscarried 3 times before I was able to go full term and the doc thought it might bee because I was on the depro for so long!!! But I now have a healthy baby boy. :d
