Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
First of all since it is 4 months you stopped your injection -Petogen please get a pregnancy test done to rule out pregnancy.If the test is negative then please consult a Gynaecologist for examination and treatment for regulating your periods.Petogen is Medroxyprogesterone and being a hormonal preparation it can disturb your hormonal balance.
Thanks
