If you’ve stopped Depo-Provera, your body may need time to rebalance hormones and restore regular ovulation. While food is not medication, nutrition plays a powerful role in supporting hormone healing, egg quality, and womb health during this recovery phase.
💡 Important to know:
Seeing your period again is a good sign—but ovulation may still be irregular. This is where intentional nutrition can help your body recover naturally.
🥗 FOODS THAT SUPPORT FERTILITY AFTER DEPO
🥬 Leafy Green Vegetables (spinach, ugu, kale, lettuce)
Rich in folate, iron, and antioxidants that support ovulation, blood health, and womb preparation.
🥑 Healthy Fats (avocado, olive oil, groundnuts, nuts, seeds)
Healthy fats are essential for hormone production and balanced estrogen and progesterone levels.
🍳 Eggs
A complete source of protein, choline, vitamin D, and B-vitamins—important for egg quality and reproductive health.
🐟 Fatty Fish (sardine, salmon, mackerel)
High in omega-3 fatty acids that reduce inflammation and support hormone balance.
🍠 Complex Carbohydrates (sweet potato, brown rice, whole grains)
Help stabilize blood sugar levels, which is crucial for regular ovulation.
🥛 Milk & Fermented Dairy (yogurt, milk, fortified alternatives)
Provide calcium, probiotics, and vitamin D that support reproductive hormones and gut health.
🍌 Fruits (banana, berries, oranges)
Provide antioxidants and vitamins that protect eggs from damage.
💧 Adequate Water Intake
Hydration supports detoxification, hormone transport, and healthy cervical mucus.
🚫 FOODS TO LIMIT DURING FERTILITY RECOVERY
❌ Excess sugar and sweetened drinks
❌ Alcohol
❌ Highly processed and fried foods
❌ Trans fats and artificial additives
These can worsen hormonal imbalance and delay ovulation.
