Suggest Treatment For A Missed Period Post Depo Shot Withdrawal

I came off the depo injection in august this year after being on it for 9 months. Before the depo id have a period on the first wednesday of every month and i got my hopes up when i started bleeding on wed 6th Sept, was light but my blood was back to how it used to be, on the depo it was dark, almost brown, but blood was back to bright red, was light until the 10th but quite heavier from the 10th until 14th, been doing ovulation tests, taking folic acid, vitamin D and calcium but no surge, we have intercourse daily if not every other day, spotting everynow and then when we have intercourse, following diets but no period this month just spotting and red blood not like before, i know i havent given it a huge amount of time but i feel annoyed with myself for being on the depo for so long when i was not told how long it takes to conceive afterwards otherwise id never have usef it, ive been told taking the pill can kick start ovulation? Also i cant find whether a gp can prescribe clomid this soon? Is there any specific tablets i can take from chemists or boots etc that will boost ovulation? Any foods? Just anything because if theres anything to help regulate my periods rather than wait then id be so grateful, thank you
