Hi
Welcome to Healthcare magic forum
The effect of depo shot lasts for 3 month, since you have taken 3 of those, it was effective from march to november.
After stopping its use, it takes a while to conceive, 6 or more months. This is the time when your body starts producing natural hormones again and ovuation resumes in normal manner. So please be patient and keep trying at the right dates.
If you are still worried, get yourself and your husband examined and tested by your dr.
All the best.
