A member asked:

When will i get my period back after stopping to deop shot? and when will i get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No way to say: It varies widely from person to person. It does tend to take longer the longer you've been on depo. It can take up to a year to resume periods and they usually aren't regular at first. However, some women are pregnant before the resume periods and some are pregnant in just a few months.
