I had always thought it took awhile. My mom had told me that her mom was on birth control for years, and when she went off of it, it took like a year and a half to conceive. I believed that, until recently, my friend came up pregnant. She had been on birth control for almost four years, and only off of it a few months. So, I guess it really can vary. Plus, if you think about it, people get pregnant while they are on birth control.

Has been a few years for me, but when I took birth control, the general concensus with doc's and the company was to be off the pill for 1 year before becoming pregnant.
With todays pills, they could have improved it or it could be the same advice. My pills came with a guidline about such things in the package too.

After 10 years on the pill, the doctor told me it's not much different than anyone else... most women get pregnant within 6 months. If nothing after a year, talk to your doctor.

actually pass to the surgeon, honey. I doubt you're pregnant; although, I do think of that this beginning administration merely isn't precise for you. I had to objective a number of diverse beginning controls till i chanced on one that became precise for me. in case you like a beginning administration that facilitates with lighter classes and has low hormones, i could attempt Loestrin. this is large. solid success!

It took me about six months after having been on the pill for years.

Did your OBGYN ever tell you that you need to detox after more than one year of taking the pill?
