When you get periods after stopping depo is it possible to conceive?

Yes. Missing a period can be a sign of pregnancy or of the depo injection still taking affect. It would be possible to have conceived after stopping the injection without seeing the return of a period, as fertility could have returned to mostly normal. Just as it is possible to skip periods for reasons unrelated to pregnancy/contraception, lack of periods is not necessarily an indication of inability to get pregnant.

∙ 9y agoGive your body a chance to recover. Expecting a period within the first month is a little optimistic if you haven't had a period for three years! The depo shot "switches off" your body's normal hormone producing ability and you need to give yourself time to get it back. Of course it is possible you are pregnant - after all some women can get pregnant straight away.
Here are answers and opinions from WikiAnswers contributors:
- Yes, you can get pregnant if you did not get a Depo Provera Birth Control shot, even if your period hasn't regulated itself yet. I was on Depo for four years, and it took five months for my period to regulate after I stopped taking the shot. You are able to get pregnant, so be careful.
- I was due to have Depo injection on December 10 2004. I did not go for the injection because I am trying for a baby with my husband. My husband and I had sex between 27th of January and 10th of February. Two weeks later I had a strange period with a lot of cramping. After 3 weeks I started having all pregnancy symptoms. I had two home pregnancy test come back negative. Now I am 8 weeks pregnant. I felt pregnant 6 weeks after stopping Depo and without period.
- If you ovulated, yes.
- i was due to have the shot on 22 January -and 22 April but i did not go for it me and my boy friend was trying for a baby and now we are having baby

∙ 7y agoSome women get pregnant within weeks of the due date of their next injection; for others, it may take up to 18 months. The average time until return to fertility is 11 months. The length of time a woman uses depo doesn't seem to make a difference in how long it takes to conceive. After the 18 months have passed, women get pregnant at the same rate as women who have never used Depo Provera; it has no long-term effect on fertility.
While you can go on the birth control pill to have a monthly withdrawal bleed, going on the birth control pill will not help you get pregnant faster after Depo Provera. There is no special "cleansing regimen" that will help you get pregnant faster.
