When should I come off Depo Provera?

I had my baby in January 2024. I want another baby but don’t want to get pregnant right now. I’m hoping to get pregnant in summer/autumn2026. I saw online that it can sometimes take up to 18 months to get pregnant after coming off depo. Can anyone who has come off depo please tell me when they ended up conceiving after that? When should I come off it? It would be a really inconvenient time to have another baby right now but I definitely want one and want to get pregnant with one before my baby turns 3 Edit: I realised I posted this in FTM🤦🏼‍♀️🤣)

I came off December 2022 and conceived a year later in December 2023 got my periods back around August 2023 (all be it irregular) x

@Chloe thank you! It did take me a long time to conceive my daughter because I was on the pill until March 2021 and didn’t get pregnant until April 2023. Might come off depo in like May 2025 :)

Is this the injection or the tablets xxx

Injection took me well over a year and tablets pretty much straight away like in my next cycle xxx

@Jasmine it’s the injection :). It might be a good idea for me to have one more shot of it and then come off it! Xx

Yeah they say 12 months can take to conceive after coming off it mine took about 14months but everyone is different xxx

@Jasmine plus I mean, a bit TMI but it’s not like me and my partner are having much sex nowadays. We have a 12 month old sleeping in between us every single night 🤣 so I should be safe for at least a year even if I came off it now lol

Closer too 18 months for me, and a few others was around 18 months

@Libby thank you so much!
