Kelly, The problem with DEPO provera is that it DEPOsits itself in a women's fat storage. This is released over time and can continue to be released for many months (some people have even said as many as 6-18 months). Nothing I'm aware of can speed up the release of the medication to allow for normal cycles. But, as I've said before, if any has more info, I'm always willing to learn.
