You can become pregnant as soon as 3 to 4 months after your last shot. But it takes some women up to a year or 2 to conceive after they stop using this type of birth control. This time frame seems unrelated to how long you used the shot.epo-Provera starts to work as birth control immediately after the first shot, if you get it within the first 5 days of your menstrual period.
To make sure you're not pregnant when you're injected with Depo-Provera, your health care provider will likely do your first injection within five days of the start of your period. If you've just given birth and you're not breast-feeding, your first injection will be done within five days of giving birth. If you're breast-feeding, your first injection will be done six weeks after you give birth. You can start Depo-Provera at other times, but you may need to take a pregnancy test first.
