A member asked:

How long does it take for you to get pregnant after going off depo provera (medroxyprogesterone)? my last shot was due the second week of this month& i stopped it.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Varies: The drug should be out of your system within a month of the due point. In theory you would return to your baseline fertility. Some report as long as a years delay in fertility. If your efforts are not successful after a year a visit by both prospective parents to evaluate fertility may be worthwhile.
