How long after birth control?

Question

I am getting older, and always heard BC takes a long time to leave ur system... So I went off BC (took for 20yrs) and got pregnant immediately!  
​I feel dumb to say it's a surprise pregnancy, and unplanned...but I was misinformed & not expecting anything for many months, even years! (such a happy surprise tho!)

Answer

A month and conceived my first on BC ?

Answer

2 and a half months! :)

Answer

I got pregnant on my 3rd cycle off bcp. My friend got pregnant the same cycle she stopped!

Answer

My doctor said that was true with older forms of birth control, but with newer types your body should be ready for a pregnancy within one cycle after stopping.

Answer

I was told the same! Only took 2 months of trying!

Answer

Some girls get pregnant WHILE taking birth control - they miss one or two days, and boom - pregnancy! I know a lot of women who "pull the goalie" and then try for years to get pregnant.   Guess everyone is different.
