Does depo provera cause infertility? 😓😭

Question

I stopped depo last year January, took me a year for my periods to be regular again, and I still haven't been able to get pregnant.. does it cause long term effects like infertility? I've done research and some people can't even have kids now😥what's your experience? Pleeeaasseee let me know!

Answer

No it doesn't ladies I was on depo provera for 4 years straight I came off it august 2015, periods returned 6 months later, I used preseed ovulation kits and seven seas trying for a baby pills. I got pregnant august 2016, I'm now due a baby girl in 3.5 weeks time :) it doesn't make u infertile it just takes longer to conceive coming off it. Before them 4 years I was on it... I'd also been on it prior to that. I was on it for 2 years, came off and conceived within 2 months then too so it varies really don't lose hope!! Xx

Answer

I was on it for ten years until my doctor told me to come off it due to the fact it may cause bones issues later in life.  I had tried to get pg with my now ex and trued on and off for a year... nothing happened i did think i was infertile. Doctor was ready to do tests but i split up with now ex due to him classing me as barren...... so year later i meet my oh and after a month or two of trying i fell pregnant......  i really put it down to it not being with the right person.

Answer

Took me 1.5 years to be regular after depot, then 3 months to conceive.

Answer

I'm in the exact same boat... stopped depo February of 2016 and my periods still aren't regular... had one in December, February, and march so I was like yay normal cycle! But then 10 days after stopping my period in march I got another one that lasted 4 days. Idk what the hell is going on and I'm just as nervous as you. Good luck to both of us! 😓😓😓

PS don't google!!! It'll only give you anxiety! Lol
