A member asked:
Do birth control have any side effects on fertility and having a baby in the future ?if taken for a long time before marriage
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No birth control pill will change your chances of conceiving in the future at all. They have no negative effect ion fertility whatsoever, they may be taken safely for many years. They also statistically reduce the lifetime risk of ovarian cancers, (and of course the risk of getting pregnant now.) No worries.
