3 to 5 months
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concerns about depot injection and delayed periods.
These depot injections typically have effects for about 3 months. In very few women they have effects up to 5 months.
Hence you need to wait till 5 months for the depot effects to subside completely.
Let me know if you need any more clarifications.
