Hello,
Thank you for your query

Going of the pill can cause hormonal imbalances a day menstrual irregularities.
It may take 3-6 months for normal ovulatory cycles to return.
The pill is a hormone that interferes with the normal hormonal cycle in the body. It causes the uterine lining to form differently and inhibits ovulation. It take the body some time to revert back.

I recommend :
-an OBGYN consult
-an ultrasound of the pelvis
-inducing a normal period if the endometrium is not shedding normally.
Wait for a normal period before trying to conceive.
-take a daily folic acid supplement
-maintain active lifestyle with adequate fiber and water in diet
This should normalize in a couple of months.
Hope this helps and you conceive soon.
Wish you good health.
