I have been taking oral contraceptives now. I plan to have a baby next year. Can I get pregnant after stopping the medication?

    It does not affect fertility, and you can get pregnant after stopping the medicine. Taking modern conventional short-acting oral contraceptives will not affect fertility, and there is no connection with neonatal birth defects. People who routinely use short-acting oral contraceptives will have ovulation in the first cycle after stopping the drug. At this time, pregnancy can be planned. In 2007, an active monitoring study covering 60,000 oral contraceptive prescription cases in Europe showed that taking short-acting oral contraceptives does not affect women’s fertility.
