Patient: I BEEN ON THE DEPO FOR 10 YEARS MY LAST SHOT WAS IN MARCH I SUPOSSED TO GOT IT IN JUNE 7TH BUT I DIDNT MY HUSBAND WANT ANOTHER BABY I WANNA KNOW IS THE DEPO OUT MY SYSTEM I HAVENT HAD MY PERIOD YET IT WASNT NEVER NORMAL I WENT TO THE DOCTOR SHE GAVE ME FOLIC ACID TO START TAKING WEN I TOLD HER I WANNA HAVE ANOTHER BABY MY QUESTION IS CAN I GET PREGNANT BY BEING OFF THE DEPO FOR A MONTH Doctor: Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.  The depo shot is associated with more irregular cycles for the first few months after it has "worn off".  It actually lasts longer than 3 months, so it probably is not completely out of your system.  Your chance of pregnancy within the 6-12 months is slightly less than the average because of this cycle irregularity, but this should resolve over the year.  I hope that this helps and good luck!
