Can the Depo-Provera shot be drained out of the body?

Answer 1

I've read on the internet on some health website that pumpkin seed may help. I'm also someone that's struggling to get the Depot out of my system and started eating Pumpkin seeds about two weeks ago. I hope it will help!!!

I also read on the internet that pumpkin seeds may help. I had not had a period for 12 months and my weight ballooned. I decided to give it a try and purchased pumpkin seeds, almond kernels and dried goji berries. Not sure if these were the reason, but 24 hours later I got my period. Thank you god!!!

You stop getting injections. The Depo is out of your system in about 14-16 weeks. You may be able to get pregnant right away, or return of fertility may be delayed up to 18 months (the average is 9-11 months).

Unfortunatley there is nothing you can do; depo provera is not recommended to women looking to get pregnant in the near future for this very reason. The injection cannot be removed from your system. Of course once you stop taking the injection your fertility should begin to return to normal, though this can take up to a year. In the meantime, keeping yourself healthy and working on your most fertile times of the month are the best things you can be doing!

hi im currently on the depo injection and have 3 weeks left after i run out im not haven anymore me and my partner have decided to try for a family how long would it take me to get my periods back to normal as every injection i have had ive bled with and would it take me long to concieve??

with thanks charlie

Plenty of water intake. I have heard of the drinking a lot of water. It is the ultimate body cleanser. I'm trying that. We will see what happens and how soon I become regular again.

It can take almost an year. I was on depo provera since end of June last year and upto now, I have not conceived and I have been active as always. I actually had to see my Gyna so that he can reverse the action.

Well there are many herbs which are available to have the natural healing properties, just refer to a natural healing herb sites online which will let u know in depth knowledge about Healing Herbs.

I have been on the depo shot since 2003 and now 2005 me and my husband have decided to have another child, and the doctor told me it can take up to a year or more to get pregnant. She said you have to let the needle wear off which can take up to 9 months or more I'm finding it extremly difficult to get pregnant now, when with my son i got pregnant within a month. The depo needle is definitely not something a woman should take if she plans on having kids, take this needle when your done having children, and it does have side effects which follow you around. Since i been off the needle i have been having cramps in my arms, headaches, and i feel sick at times. My doctor also told me that it is most best to wait until you get your period back after the shot, and i did read in something, but i can't match where, but if you take folic acid it can help really regulate your body before and after pregnancy. you out a bit and good luck!

A:

A preconception detox can be done in many ways. Infrared saunas are a good way to eliminate heavy metals. Women need at least 100 hours.

Another way is to use a herbal detox that will support the liver in eliminating excess hormones and help balance them.

Vitex is another great herbal remedy that helps bring on menstrual cycle after giving birth.

Answer 2

Once you stop having the shots, Depo Provera slowly leaves your system. There is no medical reversal available, it is simply a case of not having the next shot if you want to come off it. If you want to continue with contraception then before you stop having the Depo shot you should speak to your GP about going onto oral contraceptives, or using condoms or another method. For some women, once they stop having depo provera their periods and their fertility come back quickly, for some women it takes a lot longer.

Answer 3

I can tell you that after taking depo for 2 years, then switching to ortho evra for a year and a half, and quitting birth control all together in 2006, I have YET to have a period. As it is 2009, that's three years with no signs of fertility at all when I had regular periods before getting on Birth Control. I thought I was being responsible as a woman in her early 20s that was sexually active but was not ready to have children, and now as I am approaching 30 I may not be able to have children ever. I am 100% convinced birth control has ruined my chance of ever being a mom, and that's so infuriating. ANYONE thinking about getting on birth control or any prescription medication needs to understand the risks of synthetic drugs and always question what you're actually putting in your body. The side effects may be permanent.

Answer 4

Taking the birth control pill prevents pregnancy after you stop depo provera, but it doesn't "get depo out of your system" any faster.
i do not think so. to my knowledge, it should take about 9mths to 1year (or more) to regain fertility and even the the depo provera might not be entirely out of your system. i do not think so. to my knowledge, it should take about 9mths to 1year (or more) to regain fertility and even the the depo provera might not be entirely out of your system.
No, taking a birth control pill will lower, not raise, your chances of getting pregnant.
