How long after taking birth control pills can you get pregnant?

Patient's question:

Hello, how long after taking birth control pills can one get pregnant? I took birth control pills last month, can I have a baby this month?

Doctor's answer:

How long after taking birth control pills can you get pregnant varies. If it's ordinary short-term birth control pills, since the dosage is relatively low, they generally have little impact on pregnancy. Usually, you can start trying to conceive the next month after stopping them. However, long-term birth control pills have a greater impact on pregnancy, and you need to stop taking them for at least three months before you can start trying to conceive. During the preconception period, avoid medication, exercise sufficiently, and lower your immunity to give birth to a smart and healthy baby.
