Hello,
My little problem is that Im a 24 year old female and I haven't had a period in about a year. I'm not pregnant. As a matter of fact I have never been pregnant and by all means I should have been a few times by now, I'm not going to lie. Now when I was younger I had normal to abnormal periods depending but when I was 16 my boyfriend at the time cheated on me and gave me an std (clamydia). Now I had it for a while and didn't know and it started to cause me great pain and even turned my discharge green on a tampon so I went to the doctor asap and had it taken care of. Since then I've been clean. I have been on birth controle on and off but not for very long periods of time and I think I had the depo shot 2-3 times total. I just don't know if I'm infertile or not ovulating, or whats going on and why I can't get pregnant either. If anyone has any ideas or advice please let me know. Thanks and Blessed Be.

When did you last take any form of birth control? And also, when was your last Depo shot?

Birth control other then Depo can take many months to leave your system and more months for your cycle to become normal.

Depo Provera injection can take a year or more to leave your system. It says that on the label. It can then take some women an additional year or more to get pregnant. Of course, some women it only takes a month or two. Many women have had problems getting pregnant for many years after Depo. So I would be suspicious that Depo is the cause of your problems. If you think Depo may be the problem, you might want to get a hormone level test. Depo can cause progesterone deficiency which causes progesterone infertillity. Many doctors will not admit to this, but there are many many reports of it.

It all depends on when you last took what.

If it's been several years since you took anything, then it could be a hormone imbalance or some other underlying health problem. In which case, the best thing to do is see your gynecologist.
