A friend of mine was recently telling me about how she doesnt take birth control (pill) anymore. Her reasoning was that it can cause permanent damage to your eggs so you may never be able to concieve. She said it had happened to ber sisters friend. I have been on the pill for 4 years now, I love it because it hwlps regulate my period and prevents me from getting pregnant. But I would like to have children eventually... Is what she said true? Can taking the pill for too long cause infertility?
