Pregnancy after birth control

Reception contraceptives Is an important part of the life of any modern woman who is serious about contraception during sex and wants to prevent unwanted pregnancies. Most women with regular sex partners prefer to use oral contraceptives (OC). Of course, they are a good remedy, however, after they are canceled, a woman may be concerned about some problems. You should be aware of the consequences of taking these drugs.

If there is no period after taking birth control

One of the problems that arise after taking OK can be a delay in menstruation. This is due to the suppressive function of the ovaries by the action of hormones. While taking oral contraceptives, menstruation stops.

In medicine, this condition is called "artificial pregnancy". The delay is due to the fact that the female body needs some time to fully recover. Throughout the entire period of taking contraceptives, the following processes occur in the body:

• the cilia in the fallopian tubes cease to be active;
• ovulation stops;
• undergo changes in the properties of the endometrium of the uterus;
• the production of the hormone by the ovaries slows down;
• uterine mucus becomes thicker.

To return to normal all of the above deviations in the work of the female body and restore the cycle, it can take up to 3 months from the end of the course of taking contraceptives. This period is individual for each girl. During this period, you may experience mood swings, swelling of the mammary glands, heavy sweating, and a change in sweat odor.

Another reason for menstrual irregularities after taking OK may be the onset of pregnancy. It is worth immediately excluding this option, using tests or analyzes.

Also, the reasons for the delay in the cycle can be:

• frequent use of emergency contraceptives;
• taking pills for other purposes;
• violation of hormone levels;
• the use of other drugs;
• thyroid problems;
• gynecological sexually transmitted diseases;
• the presence of oncology;
• short breaks when taking contraceptives.

The delay in menstruation after stopping taking the pills is closely related to the woman's lifestyle. If you do not eat properly, have bad habits, do not get enough sleep, then you may have other problems.

Also, taking OK can negatively affect the digestive tract, which in turn affects the cycle.

If you do not have your period for more than 3 months, you have pain, bleeding, urgently consult a doctor. Do not self-medicate.

Pregnancy after taking birth control

Most often, women have been taking contraceptive pills for several years. All this time, artificial analogs of female hormones enter the body from outside. Therefore, after canceling OKs, the body may need time to recover.

Keep in mind that if you start taking pills and suddenly decide to stop taking them and get pregnant, you should never do this. You can not interrupt hormonal protection in the middle of the cycle. This can lead to a serious hormonal disruption, which will entail complex consequences for the female body. Be sure to finish the pack.

The speed with which female reproductive capacity is restored depends both on the duration of the pill intake and on the woman's age. For the fair sex over 30 years old, the recovery period can take more than a year. For girls under 30, this process will take less than a year. Pregnancy can occur in the first cycle after discontinuation of the drug. This effect is called the rebound effect. Its essence lies in the fact that pregnancy can occur in the first month after cancellation. For this, the duration of admission should be short - up to 1 year. The chances of getting pregnant after withdrawal are much higher than before taking them. Some doctors practice short-term use of the contraceptive, followed by cancellation so that patients who cannot get pregnant can enjoy the happiness of motherhood.

How to get pregnant quickly

After the abolition of contraceptives, most women wait 2-3 cycles and begin to panic if pregnancy does not occur. You don't need to do this. This is the average time it takes for fertility to recover. If, however, there is no pregnancy, consult a doctor. He will conduct an examination and advise on what to do to get pregnant quickly.

If a woman is 30 years old, after the abolition of contraceptives, the waiting period for conception may be increased. After 35 years, pregnancy can often only occur with the help of IVF.

Pregnancy after canceling OKs is not a problem. The main thing is to do everything according to the instructions and consult on all issues with your doctor.
