after depo- any medication?

[bronicagirl]

After coming off depo, is there any medication doctors can give you to encourage AF to return?
or do you have to just sit and wait it out?

considering last time it was 18 months in my case, thats a long wait.......

Hello
I went to my doctors after being told that going onto clomid would help your af to return, my doctor would not give this to me as she said i had not been off depo long enough (true point).
according to my doctors you have to have been of depo for over 18 months and then if af has not returned they may concider another form of treatment.

Believe me, i know exactly what your going through - not knowing if you could be pregnant as you have not missed a period and really really wanting this.

I have spent a fortune on home pregnancy tests due to swelling breasts and feeling sick as well as bloating but apparently these are the after effects some people get after coming off depo.


If you go to your doctor good luck, mine didnt want to know untill may 2006!!!

Well, news flash here, i have just looked on the pregnancy board and they said that 'vitex' chaste berry helped them to get af back and 'glucophage' helped with pcos, any help to you?
Just been on {removed} and bought some (being shipped from america and cost about £6.00 its meant to help!

Hey you, didnt look at the shipping fee did i, dozy mare! is $8.00 to ship so gonna buy 2 lots cause you need them for first three months and then thereafter till af returns and then 4-6 weeks after af has started, let me know how you get on, get the stuff thats shipped in the pot though not the bags cause they could send you anything!!!
