the shot
| Thu, 11-13-2003 - 10:02pm |
I was on the shot for two years. My husband and I are ready to start a family. I got off the shot in Aug. since then I had a normal period, but I am now a week late. I don't want to get my hopes up. I think the reason why I have not started is because my shot would be due this month. Do you guys have any advise?

I don't mean to be a doomsayer, but I want to let you know that there is such a thing as depo provera related infertility that health care workers don't tell you about. They generally tell you that it could take you a year after stopping depo to be fertile again, but they don't mention that some women don't become fertile again on there own for much longer periods of time. My doc was going to start me on clomid the month I found out I was pregnant with my first child. However, there is a regime of oral progesterone (depo) that you can do for 3 mos that helps prime your body. Most docs try that (from what I've heard, not a doc here) before other things. I refused that option because of the depression with the shot.
