I been using depo-provera for a yr. my last shot was due dec. 2012 but missed it i had 1 regular cycle since then is it possible i can get pregnant w/ out it?

Yes: Depo will not help you get pregnant. The shot can stay in the body up to 1.5 years but up to 9 months is very common. So it is very difficult to predict when or if you will have regular periods again. Depends on what your periods were like before. Fertility is reduced but can still happen now.
