Hi,
Depot provera single shot has effectiveness for 3 mths. You may get your period in 3-4 mths after the injection. Try naturally for 2-3 months, if you don't get regular cycles meet a gynecologist, who can put on a short 1-2 mths cyclical hormone pills & get your body hormones back on track.
Don't worry these medicines don't affect your pregnancy chances & your baby.
All the best
