Depoprovera effect: If you just stopped the depoprovera injection birth control method then it may take a few months for your cycles to go back to normal. The effects of depoprovera can remain in some people up to one year. If you do not want to be pregnant consider using an alternative method to prevent pregnancy. Many will give you regular periods too.
