Ok here's the question----anyone been preg. after being on the depo shot for a year?

I've had three cycles after going off the shot and wondering how soon it could take to get preg.!

also one more question----if you get you AF that always means you O'd right?

It can take time to get pregnant after being on any form of birth control. But the fact that your cycles went right back to normal is a good sign. I am not 100% sure that it always means your ovulating but pretty sure that it does.

Hey,

I took the depo shot for 1 year after the birth of my first son. We then decided to try for #2. I had no periods at all due to the shot at all so timing to get pregnant was difficult. But let me tell you, you can ovulate and get pregnant even before your period will come, I did, and because of the no period thing I didnt know I was pregnant til I was almost 5 months along. What a blessing, another little boy, 18 months after going off depo. I know have 2 boys and a girl, and would love another.
