I have been off the depo shot for 1 1/2 years now maybe 2 . I got my periods back about 6-7 months ago . I am now trying to have a baby with my boyfriend . About 3 months ago I started to notice this clearish stringy / odorless discrage at the time I am most fertile & ovulating . I just got done ovulating & had sex the whole week of fertile days & ovulation . But o am wondering if I am even fertile from the depo , if so could I be pregnant yet ?

That discharge is very normal both around time of ovulation and during pregnancy. Have you done a test?

Good luck trying for your family.

I did this fertility thing on the computer . It said my most fertile days were like the 4-7 & my ovulation day was the 7th . I don't get my period until the 21st so no I have not done a pregnancy test yet . But what about the depo , people say it has been really hard to get pregnant after using it & we have been trying for about 2 months .

Depo can take 7-9 months to get out of your system (18 months in exteme cases)

Best way to work out your ovulation days is taking you temperature every morning the minute you wake up and charting you cervical mucus ( gross huh! ) You need a digital thermometer ad you are looking for a rise in temp. Do it every day for a couple of months and you should be able to work out when you ovulate. Here's a great link all about it.

Well I have been off the depo for like 2 years so I'm guessing I will not have problems there ? I had unprotected sex while I was having that discarge mucus (gross right) but I was reading about it & it said that it was a sign of ovulation . But its been like a week & a half since then & now I'm getting really bad headaches , dizzy when I smoke ( which I plan on quiting asap) & my boobs are very sore .

It might have taken this time around. It is hard to say.

It is hard to get pregnant RIGHT AFTER getting off depo. Waiting two years probably means that it is all out of your system by now. So now it is just a matter of getting pregnant. A few things to remember:
1). Ovulation track is good but you can ovulate at any time through your cycle.
2). Having a lot of sex, even outside of your fertile period, is good. Just increases your odds.
3). Your body will reject embryos that are not viable. Genetic mutations or what not can spur the embryo to not be able to implant so it is just passed.
4). Your embryo might not just implant. It happens, not much to do.
5). It could take up to six months to get pregnant. Maybe longer depending. If it gets concerning than please talk to your doctor. They'll be able to do fertility tests and help you get on the way to having a child.

Good luck!
