Can Birth Control Pills Affect Fertility?
TTC.Hi,my name is alexis.Me & my husband have been TTC for 5 months now.I had a miscarriage about a year ago & a week after the miscarriage I started taking birth control but stoped after 3 weeks because I didnt like the way it made me feel.So its been 7 months since ive been off birthcontrol.& after we have sex I get pregnancy symptoms but then my period comes....So my question is,why do I feel pregnanxy symptoms after we have sex & could the birthcontrol messed up my fertility?.

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion usage of pills only for 3 weeks might not affect the regularity of cycles.Anxiety regarding pregnancy also might delay fertility.So relax.Participation in intercourse daily or alternative days to increase the chances of fertility.If your cycles are regular and dont have any other problem there will be definite chances for fertility.So just relax.
