How long before I get a period?!
Question: How long before I get a period?
I'm really not looking forward to a period, but I'm late with my Depo apparently. I called my local clinic to set up an appt and they set it up and said I was still within my window, but when I went in they said I was late and said it'd take two weeks before my pregnancy test comes back since I had to start over. So I told them nvrmind. I'm getting the Implanon here in a month so I figured I'd just stay off the Depo until then....I've been on it for 7 years. How long before I can expect a period? They said I was two weeks late and I haven't even had spotting yet, is there a chance I may not get a period for a while cause of how long I was on the Depo? Thanks!

Hi..
Because you've been on it 7 years sorry but it could take some women quite a while.
After the last shot of Depo Provera, it can take over 6 months for the drug to leave the body, for a small percentage of women it's shorter. Side effects may linger until the drug is completely gone.
Hope your ok.
