after depo, on BCP still No period???

Question

I was on depo for a couple years, then missed one shot and got pregnant. After baby, got back on depo for one year. 2-3 months without depo and got On BCP (otho tri-cyclen LO) First month, not pregnant (says home test and blood test at doctors last month) and I should have gotten my period 3 days ago. I haven't had it since last August/september. Why is this, and how long will it take to regulate.We want to start ttc soon and I want to know when my body will be back to normal. Why is it so messed up. And why don't doctors tell you that you'll have these problems when you get off it? (more angry than want an answer to that one) What other sort of problems/complications will I experience from being on the depo shot for so long? And when will I start ovulating/menstrating again??? Thanks for help, Im just really frusterated.

Answer 1

Your body is confused...
Birth control... Babies, Birth Control... no Birth control.......

Give it time I was on Depo for four years and it took me a good 6 months before my period was regular...
Now it's like clock work!

I think Doctors hesitate to give too many details because every woman is different and "Results Will Vary"

Plus if you have a MALE doctor.... they might not really understand all that we go through as women.....

Look enjoy your time WITHOUT a period... it will come soon enough.....

Good Luck.

Answer 2

I have asked myself that same question....."why don't doctors tell you everything?" I was on Depo for a year, and I'm still not regular, I either have a period twice a month, or not at all....My doctor told me that it can take a good year for everything to be normal again. If I only knew then what I know now, I would have never got on Depo! Good luck, and everything will be fine.

Answer 3

From having talked to other ladies (some of them my friends) who have done Depo-Provera they said it can take up to a year for the period to come back. As for problems that can occur (and read about this) from Depo-Provera a big one is that of the possibility of osteoporosis.

Answer 4

once you're greater helpful than each and every week previous due on your shot, use a backup approach of beginning up administration for the subsequent 2 weeks. once you're greater helpful than each and every week previous due and you have had unprotected intercourse pondering the reality that your very final shot, evaluate taking a being pregnant attempt in the previous receiving the subsequent dose.
