Your period may just be out of wack since
you have been taking the depo. It can
take up to a year before fertility returns
after having the shot. But to be safe I
would ask your dr or nurse - over the
phone because you don't have ins - about
your situation. And because you have been
there in the past, they should @ least be
able to answer some questions without you
needing to be seen.
