Brief Answer:
Yes, your period will mostly resume within 1-3 months.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Yes, you may get your period within 1 to 3 months if other test reports are normal including pelvic ultrasound scan.

It is seen that MOST women get their monthly period within 6-9 months after discontinuing Invega Sustenna. It takes few months time to remove completely from the body due to prolonged half life (T1/2).

However, it varies from women to women. Mental stress and over weight may impact on period. I suggest to undergo one blood test to check residual part if any and repeat the same on monthly basis. It is worthwhile.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and take care yourself.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
