I do not believe this is true. For some people it can be harder to get pregnant at first. It can take a few months for the pill to "get out of your system." But that isn't true for eveyrone. I personally know a girl that got pregnant one day after she stopped taking the pill. This is something you should call a doctor and get more information on. But I was on the pill for about 3 years and I have a perfectly healthy baby boy who is now 2.
I have actually been told & read that women who have taken the pill for a long period of time - generally have a better chance of getting pregnant sooner - after coming off the pill. Most doctors don't even say you need to wait to try.

∙ 12y agoSometimes when you stop taking Birth Control, the hormones in the body can be upset causing you to get pregnant really fast. In most cases it can even cause a multiple pregnancy with twins, triplets, etc. however in some cases the exact opposite occurs & even though your not taking the pill you can't get pregnant for a few months or so. Usually 3-6months. If your still not pregnant longer than 6months its best to talk to a doctor as something can be seriously wrong from you taking the pills. Also when you stop taking bc, you may start to get irregular periods, or spot alot
