Depo provera (medroxyprogesterone) is : Notorious in delaying one's return to fertility. If it has been 1.5 years since your last shot i would speak to an reproductive endocrinologist and infertility expert about options especially if you are eager to convceive. It can take up to one year to start ovulating after discontinuing. Also would want to make sure other hormones (like thyroid and prolactin) are normal.
