I started my depo-provera shot in november 2013 & never went back for my last shot in august of 2014. i haven't had a period since december of 2013?

Yes, this is normal!: I'm guessing you had your last shot in May of this year. It can take up to nine months for women to start ovulating again and get their period, after they stop Depo-Provera. Do not worry, this is a normal affect of this highly effective contraception.
