How Long Are Periods Delayed After Stoping Depo Shot?
Hi. I switched off the depo shot last November (2011) and went to ortho novum pills. I had one period in December of 2011 and have not had any since. I have been showing signs of pregnancy but have been taking tests for a couple of months and they all say no. How long before my periods should be regular? I'm on meds that aren't safe if I'm pregnant and don't want to risk anything happening. Thank you for your time!

Hello,
continue contraceptive pills and you will get perios at time of taking inactive pills or not taking pills. Have ultrasound and blood hcg check to rule out pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
