I'm 24 and just got off the shot. I was on the shot for about 6 full years and just got my period back last month. It took about 6 months to get it back. I loved it because I never did have my period. I did talk to the doctor and they told me to get off of it after I got married. I just got married on the 23rd of May. She also stated that it was safe enough to take for up to 10 years if I wanted.
