Hi,

After withdrawing Petogen injection(a long acting contraceptive having long acting hormone like Progesterone) Return of fertility after stopping the medicine is a long process and it takes 3 months to 1 year. It may take longer in few cases but if it does no attain ovulating cycles (detected by USG ovulation study). Please consult your gynecologist.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
