HI, Thanks for the query. I understand your concern. Nurestrate is an injectable contraceptive. Here menses are stopped/ irregular thus avoiding ovulation & conception. Normally it takes 6-8 months to restart the ovulation, after last injection. If the menstruation does not resume after this period, you should get gynecologist's advise to know the cause of absent periods ( PCOD? ovarian or thyroid disorders, pituitary disorder, fibroid uterus , early menopause)& get it treated - have regular menses with ovulation regularly & the try for conception. Yes, to have normal menses with ovulation is essential for natural conception.But in case you are thinking of test tube baby with sarogation, it need not be there. Please consult a fertility specialist in that case. Thanks.
