No ovulation on pill question

Michelle

I came off the pill 5 months ago, I understand that the pill stops you from ovulating. I also understand that we’re born with all the eggs we’ll ever have. So if you’re on the pill for say 5 years I thought that would mean all those eggs are saved / you might still have those eggs?

Doctor didn’t give a very helpful answer to my question just said “no it doesn’t work like that”.

So where do the eggs go if they are not ovulated?
