We are currently TTC and we started the first month off of BCP. Everyone is different and there is no way to predict how long your body is going to take to adjust back to normal. You could get PG within the first month or it could take you a year. You just never know.

Good Luck to you!

Thanks!

I am just curious because my friend said you should wait at least 3 months to get all the hormones out of you body to TTC so i just wanted to see if people actually did that lol

I concieved while on the pill, I was on it for 5 years....

Not sure if it helps but I was told I would need IVF to get pregnant- dh and I were filling out paperwork for adoption when we got 'knocked up'

Re: BCP & TTC

i was on BC for 9 years and i came off it the first week of march. i have heard that you should wait to regulate but i kinda was just gonna go with the flow.
first month passed...no pregnancy
i did get my period though only 6 days later than what i should have while on the pill. i have heard some girls dont get it for like 40-60 days after first coming off the pill. so i guess thats a good sign that my body is getting on track quickly.

we'll see what happens this month

Everyone's body is different SO there really is no formula. If you are planning to TTC you should consider taking folate supplements now. BCP can make you folate deficient.

Re: BCP & TTC

I've been off for two months now, I'm trying to just regulate everything. Ideally I would like to try late this year....but my DH also doesn't want to use any other protection so we will see what happens.

When I go off the pill I will be vulnerable to cysts again, so I plan on wasting no time trying.

Re: BCP & TTC

Honestly, the only reason they say to wait three months is to regulate your body and not because of the hormones. Once you stop taking BCP there is nothing that lasts in your body to prevent you from becoming PG. When I came off my first cycle was normal (28 days) and then my cycles started getting longer (29, 30, 32...). I have been off since October of 2009 and they are still irregular. Knowing what I know now, I would have gone off the BCP way before October. But it really depends on the person and how your body is going to react.

We're just seeing what happens right now, if I'm not pregnant in a year, we'll consider IVF or adoption.

First month has passed, no pregnancy.
