Official Depo Thread

Good luck Rocket. I wonder how long your cycles would have taken had you not taken the pills. My last shot was in April. I didn't do anything else and my AF was regular starting in September.

Interesting to think about, yeah. Thing is, my husband wasn't quite ready to consider starting to try back in August (we'd been married less than a month!) and I do feel that it was a good thing to be so relaxed about it (no symptom spotting, no nervously waiting for any sign of AF returning) for the first 3 months off Depo. Now that we're TTC I'm going nuts with symptom spotting and since it's been over a decade since I had regular periods, I have no clue what is "normal" for me!
 
Oh! Now I get it! We got married in August too and I just figured there was no way we would get prego before we were ready so I didn't worry about it.

*Thumbup*

Incidently, I'm in Texas too (Houston). Last year was so wonderful with the wedding and all. I'm hoping that 2011 will have it's own kind of wonderful with a pregnancy.
 
I couldn't agree more. In fact, I used to be jealous of people that got engaged when we were dating. Now while I am happy for them I am much more grateful to be married already. All that wedding stuff was too crazy.
 
Question ladies.

Have you guys had a lot of the creamy cm? It's the only kind I've been getting. I'm wondering if it's just me or if this is a side effect of depo. I'm now 5 months from my wear off date.
 
its normal its unfertile cervical fluid x like after u ovulate :) cx
 
well ive still got hgc in my blood grrr just wish this was over now tbh started the 8th Dec and its still going on with not beign able to have a cycle again and we are the 10th Jan
 
I am thinking of seeing a OB doc in April if I'm not pregnant yet or if my cycles have not resumed to normal. My regular doctors (a male) made it clear that he can't do anything till at least the end of summer. So I'm thinking of seeing a women Ob doc for a second opinion. Have any of you girls seen a doc yet? Were they helpful or did they just brush you off? I'm curious if after a year seeing a doctor would do me any good.
 
Ive not seen a doctor as only been off DEPO for just over a year now and i have been pregnant since.

You only came off it in may so i doubt any doctor will do anything till may 2011, and then it will proberly be a blood test and tell you to chart your temp ect
 
My sister-in-law raves about the female dr that she sees so she doesn't want to switch doctors. However, imho that female dr is keeping her from having a baby as long as she keeps seeing her. It's been 3 years and she just now put her on some pills for 3 months. She told her 8 months ago that she could go back in November and now it's if she's not pregnant in 6 months she is going to refer her to a specialist (aka my dr who doesn't require a referal). She told her that she has been timing BD wrong for the last 3 years every month. What a crock. And apparently female drs are in short supply in this town b/c it took her a month to get in for fertility issue and 2 months to schedule her next annual exam. Craziness!! Especially since my doctor can always conveniently get me in quickly. I <3 my doctor.

Just saw this thread..
I was on depo from 2004 untill 2009 .. I came off it to ttc .. I was then trying for 15 months with nothing...
Finally got my bfp this month on the 3rd :) xxx
Good luck ladies xxxxxxx
 
Oh yeah I almost forgot Rose, my last shot was in April 09. When I went to my dr in September he told me that if my cycles weren't regular in October 09 *six months out* I could go back for fertility work because he knew we were TTC.

That's funny. I was about to add you to our game when I saw that you're already caught the egg. Congrats!

congrats on ur bfp and giving us hope :dust: xxxxxxxxx
 
Congrats MandaXMX! I'd say that this gives me hope, but I really hope I don't have to wait 15 months!

I just got AF today after my longest cycle since coming off DP. 31 days long (felt late and frustrated since Monday - 4 days). I'm sad it's not a bfp, but glad that we can look forward to next cycle!

My doctor has hinted that at my age (turning 32 in about 20 days) she would start helping me after we've tried for 6 months or so. Well, 2 months down.
 
Rocket I hope that it doesn't come to that. It sure is expensive once the doctor gets involved. I don't know about your insurance but ours only covers the diagnostics to see if there is a problem.
