Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
The chances of ectopic pregnancy are increased with the use of the depot.
The fertility is immediately attaining after stopping depot injections, so you should consult a gynaecologist for your examination and ultrasonography to rule out any problem.
Good luck.
Take care.
