A member asked:

Been off depo-provera for 5 months trying to get pregnant taking diet pills is it ok to take since it will take a while to get pregnant since i was on depo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depo is about 3-4 mo: It may not take that long but just stop the diet pills with a posibvitve upt, they may help u lose the weight to ovulate and consider pcos if u havnet ovulated yet and look at metformin and do your research; it may help your ovulation and wt loss in some.
