Thank you for your answer but these tests, can they be done at my local doctors or do I need to go to a specialist?

Thank you

Hi!
IF you were my patient, I would advise you that if you are having regular periods, that should mean that the depo effects have worn off.  I would check some tests such as TSH, prolactin, progesterone, FSH and a semen analysis.  If all was normal, I would suggest an HSG--dye study of the uterus to check to see if the tubes are open or blocked.
Hope this helps!
