The general information I found here is that, "women who want to become pregnant may stop using Depo Provera at any time. For some women, fertility returns immediately. For others, it may take 6-18 months or longer for the body's hormone cycle to go back to normal."

 

Similar information and further answers were found here, at the American Pregnancy Association.
