Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Delayed periods can happen after stopping Depo shots. It will happen for two to three cycles after stopping the shot. Nothing much to worry and your periods will return to its normal rhythm in a couple of months. If the problem persist, you have to consult a gynecologist and take medicines to induce withdrawal bleed.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks.
