I recently came across an article in Health Magazine titled, “An Update on the Pill: Your birth control may affect you months after your last dose. Here’s how.” As a woman currently on the pill, it scares me to read that it took women, who had previously been on the pill, longer to conceive. U.S. doctors have rejected these findings. They say that just a few days after stopping the pill, the hormones that prevent pregnancy are out of your system. But, how can we reject these findings so quickly without further study?

I am in no way ready to get pregnant at this point in my life, but I do eventually want kids. It scares me to think that what I am doing now could affect this. Is anyone else listening to this research and changing their ways?
