A member asked:

Does having regular periods after stopping depo-provera mean i'm definitely ovulating? then i will be pregnant soon?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe, maybe not!: Regular periods after Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) only mean that you are lucky, because most patients have long time of menstrual irregularities after using this medicine! You may need a serum Progesterone on day 20-23 to find out if you'd ovulated.
