How soon can one get pregnant after stopping birth control pills? – Dr. Teena S Thomas

Oral contraceptive pills are basically taken to avoid pregnancy. So they are a means of contraception. So the basic work of this contraceptive pills is it gives the body enough hormones to the body in such an amount that ovulation does not happen, these pills have no relation with in future the patient not getting pregnant. So they act on that cycle to avoid ovulation. So basically you would have taken a pill for 1 year, 2 year, 6 year or 10 years, the month you stop the pill, the next month if there is no ovulation, you conceive. So the month you finish your pills, that is the end of the pill effect. The next month you can try pregnancy and get pregnant.
