Reversibility of the Pill. Once you decide that you want to become pregnant, you can stop taking your pills at the end of a packet. Most women soon become fertile again, although it may be several months before your ovaries are functioning as usual. Your first one or two non-Pill periods may be a week or two late or missed completely. It's a good idea to use another method of birth control for six to 12 months after you go off the Pill to allow your body to return to normal before you try to get pregnant.
Most women have successful pregnancies after they go off the Pill.
As far as how long it will take, on average, women who have been on the Pill take two to three months longer to conceive than women who haven't taken the Pill. Roughly one-quarter of the women who stop taking the Pill require at least a year to conceive. Delilah is here to help you have healthy intimate relationships. Click on her picture for her bio.
