How Soon After Getting Off Birth Control..... Posted: 07-26-04 23:00pm
Hi all,
a friend of mine asked me a question
today, and it's been so long since i've
been on birth control, I have no
clue...Her and her husband are thinking
about trying to conceive sometime in the
near future, she is currently on the pill
and before that was on the depo provera
shot. How far in advance should she stop
taking birth control for her body to be
regular enough to conceive. I know some
women get pregnant the day they get off
the pill and other takes up to a year or
so, but on average how long do you think
it takes most women to conceive after
being on birth control for about 3 years.
Thanks so much, she will appreciate the
help.

Your answer was right - some women will
conceive straight away others 6 monhts,
others 12 months & some (just as in a
world with no birth control) never. Also
remember that your friend's lifestyle
& her husbands as well as stress etc
all play a part in when they conceive or
if.

They say give it at least three months.
I conceieved my daughter less then three
months going off the pill though. And
yes, some people get pregnant right away!

Yeah, its different for every woman, but
they can start trying right away. You can
get pregnant while on birth control, so
anywhere from the first day you skip to
never.
