Yeah, this happens: "Return to fertility after a DMPA-IM injection averages 9–10 months. " from a very good article provided by this site. https://www.clinicalkey.com/#!/content/playContent/1-s2.0-S1521693414001035?returnurl=http:%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com%2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS1521693414001035%3Fshowall%3Dtrue&referrer= So, yes, the effect after stopping is LONG, BUT most everyone gets back to full fertility.
