If you are not on your period when you get the depo shot nothing will happen but you will have to use condoms for seven days after you get the shot to help prevent pregnancy ....depo provera only works immediately when you are on your period
There is no particular meaning to spotting two weeks after stopping Depo Provera. After stopping Depo, some women will have periods return right away. For others, it can take 18 months. The average is 11 months.
all women are different. I was on it two years with not one period. I tried for six months after stopping the depo and finally went to the Dr. the had me do 3 months of birth control to regulate myself. I did get pregnant the first month off of birth control though. did you have a period during your depo?
No, she can only get her period every 6 months.
i was on the shot for 6yrs. w/no period. after i stopped doing the shot it took about nine months for it to return, only to have the same problem. every two weeks i get a period. not fun! so i am looking for an answer too
Yes there are certain birth controls you can take like Depo Provera. But be careful I was on Depo for about 2 years and it messed up my body. When I finally got off it I had a period for 3 months straight. I have other friends who were on it that gained a lot of weight. There are other birth controls that can make you have a period only three times a year like seasonique.
you could be. Are you under stress? Are you sure you are ovulating? Those are some other reasons you don't get your period. Also, I was on depo for 6 years, and was not ovulating once I got off it (no period either) (It is a downfall of depo, no period for so long, when you get off it your body can still be outta whack)You should see your doctor they can give you a hormone pill to jump start things for you. Also, depo can take 12 to 18 months to get fully out of your system. When I got off depo and was not getting my period i had sore and swallon nippled and boobs, headaches, nausea, sore lower back and hip pain. All signs of pregnancy, but it was my body going through withdrawl.
If you are not using effective birth control, you could be pregnant. A woman who stops Depo Provera may get a period immediately after stopping, or it may take up to 18 months. The average is 11 months. Spotting may occur before the first regular period, but you can get pregnant two weeks before your first normal cycle. Take a pregnancy test if you may be at risk for pregnancy.
Going through the same thing. From what I've read it's normal. It can take months for you to regain a normal menstrual cycle.
All birth control methods have a failure rate, including Depo. The only way to know is to have a pregnancy test done to determine if you are pregnant.
There is no way to "cancel" Depo provera to get pregnant. It lasts for only twelve weeks. After that, you may get pregnant right away, or it may take up to 18 months. The average is 11 months.
the first time i got the shot i was okay on not having my period for the first two months then i spotted until my next shot. I'm due for my 3rd shot, and this time it was only a week-2weeks (i lost track). but its just spotting, not like my usual period.
Yes it takes time to become regular again, that is if you have gotten your period yet. It can take any where from a month to two years before you even get your fist period. Depo Provera stays in your system longer than three months time actually. I have been on and off the shot for six years and the first two times I went off it I received my period within the first two months, and I was on the shot for a year or more. This time I was only on it for nine months got my last shot Feb 05 and surprise I still have no period and it's Nov 06. It depends on the person when they will get there period and regulat. Hope this helps. Yes it takes time to become regular again, that is if you have gotten your period yet. It can take any where from a month to two years before you even get your fist period.

I have the Depo shot you only get the shot every three months.

We decited that we were going to try again. My cycle started sept 07 and has been on time ever since.The amount of time that it takes for your cycle to return will vary based on numerous factors. One thing that we often forget is that if you have your last shot in January, then the shot will continue working as scheduled until your next shot would be due. Therefore, you didn't 'go off' the shot in January, you stopped taking it when your next scheduled shot would have been, which would be April. Your count should begin in April.It can take a while before your body gets back to normal after stopping depo.

I am not on a seasonal birth control, AND I GOT MY PERIOD RIGHT ON TIME. no complications. I loved depo shot and was on it for six years. After reading all the negative post I though I would share my positive experience.

He said" they wouldn't write about it if everything was normal." Hope this helps :)I was supposed to get my 2nd depo shot 3 months ago. I only had the 1 depo shot back in october 08, supposed to be worn off mid jan. Now it's 3 months since I should have gotten back to normal and had a period, no signs yet. I read alot on the internet that most people who get off the needle dont get their periods back until 6-12 months later!After i stooped using depo my period started just 3 week after. But, not everyone has the same effects. It depend on your bodyI have been off of Depo for 5 months now and in a week it will be 6 months and still have not started my period. I'm not for sure, but most say around 6-9 months after stopping (depending on your body) depo you should start.Just thought i would leave you a note about my experience.. I had only ever had 2 shots of depo and the last one ran out Aug 08, so its been nearly a year since being off it. As for my periods.. about May 09 i came on for the first time, but they werent regular (infact a bit too regular) they were coming every other week without fail for 2 months and then just stopped and from then until now nothing at all. I havent been using contraception as me n my partner want our first baby, i have done a pregnancy test but negative. So a year after stopping depo still no regular periods. Sorry i couldn't be more positive.I came off the injection 6 months ago and I still havent had a periodIt took a year for my period to returnMy sister had her last depo shot in November and got married in December. She wanted to get pregnant which the doctor told her would take her some time. In May/June she got pregnant. Basically like 5 - 6 months after the shot.I was on the depo for about a year after stopping it I got my period a month later I'm hoping to conceive a baby, which by my research isn't looking too hopeful
No. The gestation period of a doe is only 5 months long, not 8 months.
If you are not using effective birth control, you could be pregnant. A woman who stops Depo Provera may get pregnant immediately after stopping, or it may take up to 18 months. The average is 11 months. Take a pregnancy test if you may be at risk for pregnancy.
it would probably mean you are pregnant you should take a test to confirm
The DEPO is notorious for problems with the menustration & hormonal imbalances. I would recommend you see your doctor & have a blood test performed to rule out a hormonal imbalance. If this is normal then the only thing you can do is have a ultrasound performed to make sure nothing is going on with your reproductive system & if THIS is normal then its a waiting game unfortunately.
it depends on a person. i took depo for 9 month but when i stoped i got my period after one moth i stoped. some people says it took them one year. good luck
It's normal, every girl is different. I got my period when I was 11. A friend of mine got her period for one week, and then it stopped. Then a couple of months after that she started getting a normal cycle.
Any concerns about your body should be brought to your doctors attention only they can tell you if this is normal or not for your body hope everything works out for the best Good Luck and God Bless!!
