A member asked:
When planning for pregnancy, how far in advance should an oral contraceptive be terminated to improve conception?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to speculate: You could become pregnant within 2 weeks of stopping OC or it may require the cited average of 6mo. Unless you have been pregnant before your fertility as not been confirmed & will eventually become evident. The basics are, stop & it may happen quickly or not. There is no magic interval that works for all women.
