June 13, 2008

I was on depo and had my last shot in july of 2007. I had no period until after the day after xmas 07. I concieved my little boy in feb of 08. Different time lengths after depo for different women. If af is regular then your ob can tell you how to chart to see when u actually ovulate. if af is not regular then u need to see an ob to find out whats going on for sure

im going to the docs on monday as its been 13 months now and period is all over the place too! starting to think that its never going to happen!

it will happen dear. you might need a drug to help them become more regular so that you can time ur ovulation and baby dancin.

It took us 9 months to conceive after Depo.

And it only took us 1 month to conceive after the pill (baby girl), and 2 months after the pill (miscarriage).

So Depo certainly took longer to get out of my system.

different lengths for different women, ive heard it could take up to 18 months for it to happen

nicnocks, it can sometime take upto 18 months after the last depo shot to resume fertility. You can discuss the option of ovarian stimulation like injectibles to start ovulating if you don wanna wait it out. But if you are getting a true period (not spotting) now and then may be the depo is slowly getting out.
