Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, the depo shot givs a varying period of protection against pregnancy depending upon the dose of the injection.

* One the desired time period is elapsed, one gets fertilit back to previously normal pattern within a period of 6 months span.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
