Hows post depo life?

Question

I was on Depo for a little over three years and my last injection was due in late april early may of 2014. I have been off of it for almost 18 months and im just now getting cm back at the rate i remwmber it being at. However im curious as to how long you ladies were on the shot, how long you have been off of it, if you have gotten your positive yet? Just looking for a little shimmer of hope because im starting to wonder if it messed me up?

Answer

I was on depo provera twice. First time for almost 2yrs, only got my period once and the second time for 3 months but only got one injection and i had a period for almost 11 months straight. My last injection was early oct 2014. After taking prenatal, (this month flaxseed oil cps) drinking more water and exercising a little, i finally got  regular cycles on a schedule in july. My doc told me it would take 6 months to clear out of my system and a year to get pregnant. Now im 4 months ttc for baby #1. So, so far my docs been right, now hopefully we fall pregnant some time next yr but i definitely WOULDNT recommend the shot to anyone!

Answer

I was on it for 3 years I believe. My last shot was April or May of 2012. My fiance and I have not used any birth control since then and have had no luck getting pregnant. Next month will mark an entire year of us actually tracking ovulation/periods etc...periods are pretty regular now and have been for awhile..but like I said, no luck getting pregnant thus far. Ovulation kits show I supposedly ovulate but I guess apparently they only technically show when you're SUPPOSED to ovulate? So I'm not sure if I really do. My doctor won't even check me unfortunately. She acted as though it was an inconvenience and unnecessary so I will be seeing someone different soon. Not sure if me not being able to conceive has anything to do with being on depo or not...

Answer

I was on depo for about 10 years. Got my last injection in November 2013. December 2014 my cycles started to regulate a bit. Started seriously ttc, tried for six months, found out I don't ovulate, got pregnant in October on my first round of clomid.

Answer

I was on the depo for 4 years I got my last shot April of 2016 I got my period right away but very irregular for about 3/4 months, doctor gave me 10 day dose of progesterone and it regulated my cycles. I got my BFP February 2017.

Answer

I've officially been "off" depo for 1 year now. My one and only shot was in July 2014. My cycles have been pretty regular, averaging 33-38 days for 4 cycles now, so that has been encouraging. However, I've been having spotting in my luteal phase, so I can only assume my hormonal balance is still incorrect.

Answer

Im interested on knowing the story of others too! Personally, I was on depo provera for 8 years (17to25 years old). Last shot was oct 2014. After thag, i took the mini pills (because I thought i would be pregnant fast ppfff). I dont take any contraception since july 1rst 2015. No period yet.... I take ovulation test daily and never had a positive.... I try to let it go but its hard. We want a baby to badly!!!
