A member asked:

Birth control: tri-levlen dilemma. when should i stop when ttc?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Up to 1 month before: Generally, obs will tell you they want you to have a period off birth control before trying, to see if there are any problems with your period; that said, I have a 17 year old daughter who is living proof that waiting is not necessary. Good luck!
