Hi, Thsnks for the query .I understand your concern. Depo contraceptive shots take 6-10 months to get regular menses. Please wait for 2 more months... you may resume normal periods automatically. Side by side you can get investigation like usg/ thyroid function test to exclude any other possible cause for menstrual problem (which may be coincidence) Thanks.
