A member asked:

Do i start counting from march 2014 since that's when i got my period back after stopping depo-provera when and what year should i be able to get pregnant ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: It may take 9 months for regular cycles to establish after stopping Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone). You should be able to conceive within 6 regular menstrual cycles as long as no other factors exist.
