Pregnancy after Depo Provera

Hi,
I had been on the shot for about 2 years after delivering my daughter. I got off the shot over a year ago and just recently got my period. I'm concerned with getting pregnant. My depo shot distributor at my local health department did not tell me how long it could take to get a period and thus get pregnant. I want terribly to get pregnant and wondered if you could tell me how long it may take? Also, my girlfriend was also on the shot and has had 2 miscarriages. Can this be related to the shot. My gny has offered to put on a fertility drug to help me get pregnant. What do you think? I would appreciate any information you could give me.
Thanks!
