Pregnancy Info HOME

id say it still depends on your body. dont get your hope up on getting pregnant straight away. but personally i wouldnt think it should be too long but thats only my personal opinion.

well im happy to update ive been off depho for 3 month and i am now two months pregooo yayyy so it depends on the body type ...im slim and 5'1 and only had one shot :}

hello ive been off depho for 3 month and only had one i am now two month prego so give it time it will happend but the shot can really mess u up i had nipple dicharge that look like milk while on the shot i threw up alot even when the shot was out of date .....i wouldnt suggest this birth control for noone ...well not everyone ...wish you luck....baby dust

i was on the shot for 5 years, and ive been off of it for a few months now. ive been trying to have a baby for 4 months now,the only symptom that ive had is white milky discharge. i dont know if its a sign of being pregnant, or from being off the shot. i have no idea what to think. any ideas?

It can take several months to start ovulating after five years on depo. If you want to watch the progress, start BBT temperature charting.

I've been on depo on and off for 16 years i have a 16 year old, 10, and 8. When I got pregnant with my 10 year old I missed by shot by 1 day and got pregnant also with my 8 year old missed it by a week, I missed it again by 6 days and now im pregnant and not knowing how far along i am cause i do not get a period.

Great feedback, rudy. I don;t think the same is true for ever woman, but your system certainly rebounds in a hurry. That's one unplanned pregnancy every four years while on Depo.

Hello. I've been reading everyone's situations but mine seems to be a little different. I stared depo 2 years ago, two days after the birth of my daughter. The entire time, I've been experiencing bleeding. and I dont mean spotting. I've had heavy bleeding like a normal period. The frequency isnt regular but its to the point i have to always wear a pad just in case. After talking to my doctor, they a__sured me nothing was wrong and it may just be how my body reacts to it. I've recently decided to stop the depo because my boyfriend and i want another baby. My next shot is due in 9 days. Has anyone who have experienced heavy bleeding through out their time on depo had a longer or shorter delay in when they've gotten pregnant?

I got my last shot in April 2011 and should have went back in July 2011 I only had two shots and go a normal period in August 20011 So I have been of the shot a month is it to early to try to get pregnant will there be any harmful side affects to my unborn baby if I do get pregnant from the depo shot please help thanks.

I took the depo shot in may 2010 For only 3 months (one shot), and i have been having unprotected s_x since june 2010. Still no pregnancy :(

When did u start having a regular period?

Right as i was supposed to get the shot again, but then didnt.

I am a little confused you were suppose to start your period when you next shot was due or you did you start your period when your next shot was due?

hi we are using a surro to try and have a baby for us as we cant .she has been off the depo for 9mths now and has short cycles each time anything from 18-21 days last one was 26 then 18 again this time it seems each time we do insems she gets her period a few days later could her body be rejecting my husbands sperm or is it an affect of the depo . we have been using the clearblue fertility monitor and got a peak last time so did insems 2 days running then 3 days after she got spotting for 2 days then the nextday her period started any ideas on this please help confused.com x

I have been on the depo shot for 3 years it just wore off on October 3, but i had my period right after it wore off. And me and my husband want a baby i am only 17 years old have been on the shot since i was 14, i want a baby

I guess I am what you can consider one of the lucky ones. I have been on the depo shot for about three years. I had my last shot on July 14, 2011 decided not to go back for my next which should have been October 6, 2011. I got put on the patch, stayed on it for a week and my fiance decided we would try for a baby. I have been reading all of you all different body reactions and thought wow this could take a long time. So basically I have been off the shot for two weeks and I started my period last night. It is light, but its there and I am having the normal cramping the way I used to before my shot. I have read some women don't start back their period for a couple of months so.... Do you guys think this means I will become pregant faster?
