You can get pregnant if you aren't using protection.

Have you gone to see a doctor? You should.

When I came off of depo 6 years ago, it took me about a year for my period to come. I would say not to worry, and see a dr if it goes beyond 12 months. Good luck!

Remember that you can still get pregnant too- because you'll never know when your body decides to start ovulating again and you won't get your period until AFTER that happens.

I think Georgia was just saying that before you get your first period after depo, you will ovulate first. So, it is possible to "catch" the egg and get pregnant before you have your first period if you are having sex. Does that make any sense? lol, I suck at explaining things.

If you are trying to conceive there are medications that can bring your period on, or a doc might even prescribe you with birth control to regulate your hormones and bring you back to a normal cycle.

You should see your gyno about it. Good luck!

Just remember that after depo, there is always a short period of infertility while you wait for your cycle to return. And even without depo in the situation, a healthy couple can take up to a year to conceive. So you have plenty of time before you should start worrying. Wink
