Is it possible to become pregnant after depo?

I've been off the Depo shot for almost a year now, in Aug 2012 I got my period back again. Its been 9 months of bleeding every week. I've noticed that it generally starts every Wednesday and ends about Sunday, every week. This week i've had some bad cramps but it is only when i'm clotting, which have gotten as big as $.50 pieces. Me and my husband have been trying to conceive for the past 4 months with no luck. I don't know what to do to make the periods stop, i'm scared infertility is a possibility due to being on Depo for the last 6 years off and on. Anyone have any information or advice?

I had an hormonal imbalance, sounds like that is what's happening to you, you should speak to your doctor. It took me 7 months after getting off of the pill to get pregnant.  So it is possible.
