Is it true when u'r on birth control for a while,and then u go off and then you have trouble getting pregnant? I am thinking about going on birth control cuz i have really bad cramps, irregualr period, and i want my period shorter... My mom says she doesn't want me going on because it may be harder to get pregnant when im older...Can someone help me, and if theres a site will u post that too so i can show her some evidence supporting or putting down her idea!! Thanks

Birth control pills can be effective in regulating menstrual cycles and may lessen the bleeding during your periods and may help with cramps. It is sometimes believed that a woman on birth control pills for a long period of time may have trouble getting pregnant, however, most women return to fertility rapidly. Here are some good sites with some good information.

my girlfriend recently, well like 6 months vago, went on birth control for the same reasons as you. the ppl at the clinic said it will only take up to 7 days tops for the pill to wear off, and u will be able to get pregnant again. I'm not sure an exact website, but try looking up planned parenthood :).

No it's not true.... I also had irregular periods and bad cramps. I was on the pill 5 yrs when I became preggo while on birth control. anything is possible, as you can see in my case.
