It is an average of 6 months for periods to return.... so you could have a mighty long wait yet - some ladies reported waiting over a year, some of course started a great deal sooner.

But regardless of that you still should be practising SAFE SEX with condoms or other barriers for 4 months from the last dose if they were the monthly ones.

That's 3 months or 12 weeks after your next injection day would have been due, if you had had it.

There shouldn't be any need to do a pregnancy check unless you have been wreckless and not practised safe sex - or you had mishap e.g. a split condom.

If you have not yet had any signs of ovulation or a period, that's still absolutely normal. Wait a year and if at that entire time no periods then see your GP to get your hormone levels checked as it might indicate the pituitary gland producing the sex hormones has not recovered and it might not ever, but at this point it is far far to soon to know that.
