So I’m waiting for my periods to return after having one depo shot in December . It run out feb 27th so almost 6 weeks ago
Now I’m fully expecting it to take a while for my periods to return but I just want them back now 😩 I thought I would try and start ovulation tests to just see if and when I will ovulate and I did one today and nothing not even a second line at all and Ino a second line doesn’t mean a positive till it’s as dark as control but I thought I would at least have a hint of a line like everyone does . does having a just one line mean anthing bad !
I saw a tiny hint of a second line before it dried but then nothing .
I’m so stressed I just feel like I’m becoming obsessed and I want them back it’s bad enough trying to get pregnant when your having regular periods but knowing I have no chance till there back is really getting to me x
 
Ugh so sorry! I would say keep testing! Depo can stay in the system for a long time after stopping. I had my last depo shot 12/23/2017 so it ran out 03/23/2018 but I had until 04/02 (that is what my card said given by provider) to come back and get next shot. Well on 03/30/2017 I got a Smiley face on Clear Blue Easy digital test. Then I used Clear blue Advanced OPK and internet cheapie and got a BLAZING positive and Solid smiley face 04/01/2018. I am in my TWW but I know it is still possible not to ovulate even with a positive OPK. Hope this helps!
 
Thanks hun have you had a period since the depo running out . Good luck hope this is ur time x
 
I had some withdrawal bleed or spotting I would say March 08,9,and 10th but nothing yet. I have always gone right back to having periods previously when using Depo though so I am hoping either I will be pregnant already or will get my period next week!
 
That’s great hun I hear all these horror stories of it taking years for people to get periods back and to get prehnant I did another ovulation test tonight and there is a line nowhere near positive but still I’m hoping mine return soon x
 
I totally understand. I was waiting for my period to return after stopping my birth control and it drove me crazy.

I don't know why I'm so obsessed this time. I think its because we lost our last baby and I feel such an urgency. Maybe its a mix of impatience and anxiety.. but i'm driving myself crazy too.
 
I took one depo in September 2016, it gave me awful headaches so I decided not to take another. My periods didn’t return until June 2017. I visited the doctor after about 6 months with no periods and she said my hormones seemed to be paused at mid cycle. Everything seems to be back to normal now and I’m having regular periods with a 28day cylce
 
Thank you hun I do see a lot of people saying they returned after about 6 months of it runnning out I’ll just have to be patient it’s so hard tho x
 
My period is back in full swing as of yesterday and heavy today.. So maybe yours will come back soon too!
