4 years ago i gave birth to twins and went on petogen. my last injection was 10 months ago and i still haven't had my periods since. currently on trip

Normal : Petogen is a medroxyprogesterone like DepoProvera in the US. It is associated with amenorrhea (the absence of periods). This can last for up to a year after discontinuation. Ovulation can occur before your first period after stopping it so you do need another method of contraception unless you are ready for another child and preferably until your period resumes even if you do want another baby.
