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?

I was on depo right at 2 years. After I "missed" my last shot, it took 5 months to get my period and 3 months after that to get pregnant. Now I'm 13 weeks pregnant and everything is fine. We understood it could take a while so I stopped taking it a little before we wanted to become pregnant. We did not have to calculate ovulation or anything, but that was because we didn't expect it to happen so soon. Good luck to everyone trying!

I had 1 shot of the depo in december of 2008. I did not have a period and after the 3 months were over, my period returned to normal. I've been trying to get pregnant since november of 2009 and I have still been unsuccessful. I really don't know what to do anymore. Please if anyone has any advice?

Sad news gurls, I had my period a couple of times and it stopped. I had one 2 weeks after I was supposed to get the shot, one 2 weeks after than and then 1 week later. After this nothing..... just cramping really bad! Hopping for the best. 3 months and counting :-(

ok so i have been on depo for 3 years. My last shot was July 2011. so it wore off in November 2011. I started a little spotting on January 13th,2011. It was brown like old blood and it stopped after 5 days. Then on January 24th,2011 and it was more like a period. I had cramping and it was red and heavier then spotting. It lasted 5 days as well. I have been taking a one a day woman's multivitamin and 800 mcg of folic acid everyday since December 2011 to help my body get back to normal. I believe that its working since I am already starting to get my period back. Oh and I forgot to mention that August 2011 I had a laparoscopy to see if I had endometriosis because I was having horrible pain during intercourse. I am almost 20 years old and they found that I had a lot of endometriosis for my age. They removed all of the endometriosis with a laser, and since then I have felt so much better. I am worried that not only the depo but also the endometriosis is going to take me longer to get pregnant. I am going to see my dr in February to have my yearly pap and see if there is anything else I can do to increase my chances of getting pregnant. Best of luck to everyone on this forum on trying to get pregnant :)

Getting your period back is a good indication that you are ovulating again. Your most fertile day is 15 days before your next period is expected. GL!
