Question: is it harder to get pregnant if you have been on the pill for a long time?
Answer: But most women can get pregnant within a year. One study even found that women who took the pill for more than 4 or 5 years were more fertile than those who used it for 2 years or less. If you've been using the progestin-only pill, called the “minipill,” it's possible to get pregnant days or weeks after you quit.
