Sounds reasonable.: I am sorry for your loss. If you are aiming to avoid pregnancy for the time being, your physician's choices sound reasonable. You don't need to have a period after depo-provera before you can start oral contraceptives. Take 1-5 mg Folic Acid daily throughout your reproductive life, as most pregnancies are unplanned. Genetic counseling should take place before your next pregnancy to explore options.
