DEPO SHOT

has anyone else been on depo shot and taken ages to conceive, i have been of the depo for 3 months now and am trying just wandering how long it took people

I have been off depo for 5 months and havn't even gotten my periods back :(
My husband and I havn't been TTC per say (we havn't used protection but havn't been really trying for anything) Recently we've made the decision to try to start a family but I am going to talk to my doctor about whether or not I'm actually ovulating

i had depo shots like 6 years ago now. and i am not sure if things changed or not, but i thought you only got the shot every 3 months because it lasts 3 months.  so, i would say that if you got the shot three months ago then you are still controlling thing with the shot. so i would wait and see what happens in month four. (i bled for over a month when i didn't get my next shot) this might help you to gage things a bit better about what your body is up to.  i am coming off birth control this is month 3 for me and i am just now feeling normal again.  and i remember depo was really strong. so be patient and listen to your body. i'd say at least another month or two if not more.
hope that helps a little bit.
good luck!!!

after depo it could take ur body 6 mons to a yr ( from the date of ur last shot) to get back to normal so u my conceive right away or it may take a little longer depending on your body
