Well, it's : Unlikely to be the depo-provera. You are not flawed or defective, you just need to see your doc, you have secondary ammennerea, a broad term for no period for over 3 months while not pregnant (check pregnancy test). It's most likely that you r not ovulating which can e remedied but see your doc. Gd luck.
