If Inj DMPA were taken regularly every 12 weeks, then the first few cycles will come irregularly, sometimes heavy also. After few cycles, they may not get periods. Even if injections are stopped later, it might take average 9 months for the cycles to restart.
If injections were not taken after that, then pregnancy to be ruled out.
Ultrasound pelvis to be done.
