TTC After Depot: Anecdotally, women in your situation report waiting 6-18 months before successfully comceiving, with periods returning in 6-12 months after the last depot shot. Some gynecologist s will put you on the pill to try to regulate the return of your periods. Check with your gynecologist to discuss his proposed strategy for you.
