Pre-Pregnancy: Fertility problems


Q. 

Can long term use of the Pill affect fertility?

A. 

The pill protects against ovarian cysts, ectopic pregnancies and some infections, so you are more fertile now than if you had not taken the pill. There are a small number of women who require a short course of clomiphene to start their periods again once they have stopped the pill (so-called "post pill amenorrhoea"). As long as this is the only problem the chances of success are nearly 100 per cent.
