If you're talking about the Depo-provera shot then I've taken it. It took almost 8mon. for me to get pregnant. I think it depends on alot of factors like how long you have been on the shot, your age, and your health status. I was pretty healthy, 24 (when I got pregnant), and had been on the shot for about 5 years. My Dr. warned me that it could take 3 or 4 years to get pregnant. That made me and my husband really depressed because we really wanted to start our family. We got lucky I guess! Good luck!

4. Return of Fertility
DEPO-PROVERA CI has a prolonged contraceptive effect. In a large US study of women who discontinued use of DEPO-PROVERA CI to become pregnant, data are available for 61% of them. Based on Life-Table analysis of these data, it is expected that68% of women who do become pregnant may conceive within 12 months, 83% may conceive within 15 months, and 93% may conceive within 18 months from the last injection. The median time to conception for those who do conceive is 10 months following the last injection with a range of 4 to 31 months, and is unrelated to the duration of use. No data are available for 39% of the patients who discontinued DEPOPROVERACI to become pregnant and who were lost to follow-up or changed their mind.
