Depo-Provera: After stopping depo-provera, the first ovulation can take awhile. Sine you only stopped the depo-provera in august, you have only had 1 or 2 ovulations. Sometimes it takes a bit longer. Usually 6 months to 1 year, depending upon your age. And i hope you are taking Folic Acid or a multivitamin daily!

Time. : It can take time to be able to get pregnant after stopping depot. Even up to and over a year. But if it takes that long, or you are over 35yo, seek evaluation.
