Injection & Trying to conceive help?So I've been on & off the contraceptive injection for about 3 years now! I mean I'll go for like 2-3 injections in a row so about 6-9 months then I'll have a break & go on the pill or use condoms, but every time I stop the injection my periods always return straight away & are regular again once a month for 5-7 days. However I have just stopped using the injection again as me & my partner have decided to try for another baby!So when the injection ran out I bleed for about 9 days but it was very lightHowever I haven had a bleed or a period for about 6 weeks I did a pregnancy test about 2 weeks ago and it was negative. This is unusual for me as irregular periods aren't a side affect of the injection for me. So could I be pregnant? Should I take another test? I hope this makes sense to you. And I really appreciate your advice/help. Thanks in advance :)

Sorry to say, but it can take upwards of TWO years for your body to "recover" after taking the depo shot.
