A member asked:

If i just got off the depo-provera shot how likely is it for me to get pregnant if i've been having unprotected sex since i've been off it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

2-3 months: The Depo-Provera can linger for a while but I have never seen it take more than 2-3 months. If you want to start trying for pregnancy sooner, you could undergo ovulation induction and that will get your ovaries to stimulate and ovulate.
