I'm 27 and I was on depo provera for 3 months then I stopped getting it and 4 months later I still have not gotten my period. I've been on Depo before and nothing like this has happened, help!

That's what happens to a lot of women on Depo Provera. One of the main side effects is that your period will stop. If there's any chance you could be pregnant (like if you were late getting your follow-up shot) see your doctor. Otherwise, enjoy not having that monthly hassle. As a side note, be sure to take a calcium supplement while you're on Depo Provera - it causes bone loss.

It may take a few months for your cycle to normalize after coming off Depo. But I'd suggest a follow-up appt with your gyno to be sure that everything is OK.

Do you go for food suplements? I know of a product in liquid form that is truly effective in cases like yours. I have introduced the product to my friends with similar problems and they were happy with the result. My family and I use it too regularly. I will tell you more about the product if you are interested.
