It is recommended that you wait 6 months after stopping birth control to become pregnant but many women dont wait that long. Some women are very fertile and get pregnant right away and some take a longer time. Your body should be back to its normal patterns 3-6 months after stopping the birth control hormones.

It can happen tomorrow or it can take up to a year. Its not as easy to get pregnant as it seems.
