Hi, it is very unlikely that your previous depo injections are now causing a delay in pregnancy. Regarding your previous miscarriage, if you took depo while you were pregnant, then it might have caused the abortion, but if you had taken it prior to pregnancy, it can't cause abortion. So, I think you should go for evaluation first. Do a thyroid profile and prolactin levels and a ultrasound for your uterus and ovaries. If everything is fine, you can take some medicines for growth of your follicles and track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound. When follicles reach a size more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles. Be in contact with your husband for 2 to 3 days after your injection. Take progesterone for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test at home after that. You can try like that for 3 to 6 months. Hope I have answered your question.
