A member asked:

Just got off of birth control today. trying to conceive. does not waiting a month after stopping increase risk if miscarriage?

No, myth : Not waiting a month after stopping oral contraceptives does not increased risk of miscarriage. There is some information stating that the multiple pregnancy rates could potentially be slightly higher though.
