Can taking birth control pills cause fertility problems in the future?

Taking the contraceptive pill does not cause fertility problems in the future. Studies have shown that even when taken for several years, it does not impact the return of fertility after stopping contraception. It is important to remember that factors like age, alcohol consumption, smoking, and obesity can affect fertility. Using a condom is also essential for protecting against STIs. It is important to be informed about the advantages, disadvantages, and contraindications of oral contraceptives for your overall health.
