So my question is....How long after you stop taking the depo do you get your period?

It took almost a year before I got mine. It is different with everyone though.

I believe it may take a few more months, on average it takes 3 months off of depo to get it. If you dont get it within 6 mo i'd talk to a doctor maybe

I think my period took about three months to come back. As someone else said, I believe three months is average. However, even after the period comes back, many women find that they still can't get pregnant for even as long as another year.
