It really depends. The hormones from birth control can stay in your body for a while, which might cause you to not get pregnant right away.
However, everyone's body is different. Some people might stop taking them and a week later be pregnant.
I would not chance it, if you aren't ready for a baby.

It takes six months for the birth control to get out of your system. But if you don't want to get pregnant and you want to stop taking birth control, i would still reccomend using a condom. Even if you are off the birth control or on it, you can still get pregnant, it's just a chance you are taking no matter which way you go. There is nothing that is completely 100% foolproof against not getting pregnant.

You might. In fact, you can even get pregnant while you're taking them if you don't take them exactly as you're supposed to. If you have to stop taking your pill, use at least one backup method of birth control. I know people who have become pregnant while on the pill, and one person who conceived immediately after stopping it. Be careful, unless you are ready and willing to have a child.

Yes, you may still get pregnant. Especially when you have sex during your time of ovulation. But if you are not willing to get pregnant right now...then pls continue to take you b/c pills. But to answer your question...yes you can get pregnant if you stop taking them, but it is not necessarily, immediately, it could take a month.

Truthfully, if you need my sincere opinion on this, it's ordinarily God telling ya that after killing a baby it can be sure now not time for HIM to provide you with one more one. There are soo many people available in the market that would really like to have kids. For those who get pregnant by mistake, don't kill the little one on the grounds that of your movements, let any individual adopt the child so they can get the love they deserve.

You probably won't immediately get pregnant, but there is always a chance as long as you aren't getting those hormones. But, the longer you are off them and having unprotected sex....yes...you will eventually find yourself pregnant. Talk to your doc if you are planning on becoming pregnant. He can give you the advice you need.

You could. I know a girl who missed a week of active pills thinking she'd be covered (not true) and now has a week old baby. Of course, you could also get pregnant while you're on it, but without it you're not protected at all unless you use another method.

You could get pregnant, maybe not in one month though. If you want to get pregnant why are you going to stop for one month??

Its possible. Its possible to get pregnant while you are taking them. Don't forget that they don't prevent STD
