A member asked:
No period because of the depo-provera so will starting the birth control help get it started so that i can start trying to conceive?

Probably not: You resume cycling after Depo-Provera (provera?) wears off whenever you body decides - usually first few months, but some women have taken more than a year. Taking ocp in the meantime will not reliably 'force' you to start cycling again, that happens when your body is ready. Be patient.
