Contraception
How soon after stopping the pill can I get pregnant? Gynecologist in Seoul, Korea
The short answer
Fertility usually returns quickly, often within the first one to three cycles after stopping the pill. You can try to conceive straight away. Long-term pill use does not cause infertility. If your periods have not returned within about three months, see your doctor.
The contraceptive injection can take longer for fertility to return than the pill, implant or IUD. See birth control pill and preconception checkup.
