Im trying to get pregnant but its been a couple months now... is it becuz i've been on birth control?

Answer 1

It's difficult to say exactly how long it will take any one individual or couple to get pregnant. Factors such as your age, general and reproductive health, and when you have intercourse all impact your chances of conceiving a child

However, these general statistics may give you an idea of how long it will take. Normally fertile couples have a 25 percent chance of getting pregnant each cycle, and a cumulative pregnancy rate of 75 to 85 percent over the course of one year. Still, some healthy couples can take even longer to get pregnant

And you can try to increase your likelihood of getting pregnant sooner by learning to pinpoint exactly when you ovulate, and by familiarizing yourself with the cyclic hormonal and physical changes that take place in your body each month.

I have included some links for you so you can do some reading and research on your body. OVULATION IS THE KEY TO GETTING PREGNANT! Remember that. These are the steps you need to take...
1.) Make an appt. with an OBGYN (or your current GYNO is fine) He or She needs to give you a complete exam and make sure you are having regular periods, that your tubes are unblocked, and that you donot have anything else that may cause you to not get Pregnant ie...sexually transmitted diseases, PCOS, ect...
2.) You need to make sure that you are ovulating. Belive it or not, some women, do not ovulate. And as I said, Ovulation is the KEY to getting pregnant. To do this, you should buy a Basal Themometor (you can buy at almost any store where they sell regular themometors.) and start taking your temps EVERY MORNING BEFORE you get out of bed. to read more about this, check out this website for what they have to say about it.. http://www.mamasark.com/bbt.htm............
3.) you also need to learn to check your Cervix Position AND your Cervial Mucus everyday. To learn more about this check out these websites... http://www.webwomb.com/check_cervical_po...
and

4.) Once you have got this all down you need a place to chart them all so that you can keep track of what your body is doing and when you ovulate. www.fertilityfriend.com is the best place to do this. It is a free site and it allows you to chart your temperature, your cervial mucus and position and helps detrmine when you ovulate.
5.) As for the man, some doctors will do a Sperm Analysis if you request to have one done. Basically, they ask for a sample of the mans ejactulation, and they will send it to the lab and look at it under a microscope and count the number of sperm and see how many are good, and how fast they swim. Do not be upset if your dotor will not do this right away. Most doctors tell you to just relax and 'try' and if in 1 year you are not pregnant, then they will do a sperm analysis. But just insist that you want one done because if there happens to be a problem, you would want to know now and not in a years time. Every month is precious time.
6.) Some easy lifestyle changes you can to are, Stop Smoking, Stop Drinking, limit your caffinee to 2 cups a day, the female should start taking prenatal vitamins, and try to eat healthy, exercise and get a decent amount of sleep each night.

*********OF COURSE YOU CAN ALWAYS JUST DO IT THE OLD FASHIONED WAY AND HAVE ALOT OF SEX AND HOPE FOR THE BEST! LOL But for your best chances, these are the steps you need to take!!*************

~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~PLEASE REMEMBER!!!! Even a 100% healthy couple only has a 40% chance of conciving each month, so dont get discouraged if it doesnt happen right away, even if you do all the things above. Just have fun with it, and do not make sex a chore or a job, just relax and enjoy eachother, and when the time is right, you will get Pregnant!
Good luck to you and TONS OF BABY DUST YOUR WAY!!!!!

Answer 2

No , it doesn't suggest whatever's mistaken- it takes as much as a yr in a girl below 35 earlier than the medical doctors don't forget it a 'difficulty'. Figure out whilst you ovulate, making use of cervical mucus or temperature charting, or at-house ovulation predictor kits, and feature intercourse each and every different day for approximately every week on both aspect of whilst you ovulate (in case it is 'off time table) a bit of from what you expected). Any extra intercourse than each and every different day can dissipate the sperm, and they may be able to reside in there as much as a couple of days, so you are blanketed. Also, a few varieties of start manage, like the dept shot, take waaay longer to your frame to get out of it is process, so that can be a aspect. Just hold your self as healthful as you'll,. and well success.

Answer 3

Birth control is made to effect your cycle and your body reads your cycle to form the pattern buy which we get pregnant by. Sometimes it takes longer than others to regulate after birth control. Just hang in there for a little while longer!

Answer 4

well there are ovualtion kits you can try im doing them now and they are great !!! you buy them at the drug store or any shop that sells pregnancy stuff... you buy an ovulation kit for 5 days it comes with 5 peeing cups and 5 tests you do one test a day for 5 days at the same time every day.... it sort of looks like a pregnancy test but for ovualtion.... it comes up positive when you are at your highest and that means you are going to ovulate in 24 - 36 hours so you have sex on the day you get a positive and the day after....its worked for alot of women thats just an easier thing to try so that when you know you are most fertile you can plan a romantic evening and just enjoy the night instead of worrying the WHOLE month about making sure that you and your husband had sex on certain days so goodluck and for the future CONGRATS

Answer 5

It took me 14 months to get pregnant with my first, who knows why it takes longer in others and happens so quickly for somebody else. After being off birth control, it might take your body awhile to adjust. Who knows honestly. When God decides to bless you with a child, He will. Just live your life and stop worrying about it, afterall it's not going to get you pregnant any faster. Best wishes and blessings!

Answer 6

Its possible, sometimes it takes longer for the pill to get out of your system. A person is not really considered infertile until a year of no pregnancy or 6 months if the person is over 35. If you have concerns see the doctor anyway.

Answer 7

Check with your doctor.It will take a while for you. Let mother nature take its course and it will happen. Just relaxe. Walk every day and eat right. A good diet will help you. Losing a few pounds won't hurt any. Or just have fun try for the baby. Try different postion and different place. Let your body relaxe and not be tense.Good luck.

Answer 8

It depends on what kind of birth control you were on. I took Depo and it took me a year to get pregnant. It also depends on how long you took birth control. You have to be patient it will happen.

Answer 9

depending on how long you've been on birth control it does take time for it to leave your body. Sometime even a yr. Keep trying though it will eventually happen.

Answer 10

birth control effects your body's hormones. depending on how long you used birth control you may need to stay off of it for a month - 6 months to concieve.
