Hi.. Thanks for the query.. Depo provera sometimes called the Depo shot, contains the hormone Progestin. Progestin stops you from getting pregnant by preventing ovulation. When there’s no egg in the tube, pregnancy can’t happen. It also works by making cervical mucus thicker. When the mucus on the cervix is thicker, the sperm can’t get through.

Loss of menstruation or periods after stopping Depo is not abnormal and can take upto an year for the process to come to normal and restore your ovulation and fertility.. Hope… Read more »
Hi..
Also please tell that are you planing pregnancy?
In case if within an year also you o not get periods you should consult your Gynaecologist and get evaluated.
