How Soon Can I Get Pregnant After Stopping Birth Control Pills?

I was on OCP for the past 3 years, then decided to stop for 10 months and got back to OCP on the next 2 months. Last month I decided to stop OCP and want to get pregnant.. Have tried making a baby on my most fertile days but got my period delayed for just two days. Question, how soon can I get pregnant? Is this because of the pills that I have taken?

Hi,
How are you doing ?
You can try & get pregnant immediately after stopping OCP. After you stop the pills , the chances to get pregnant increases. But this may not be the reason, May I advise you a checklist of investigations, which if you have not completed, do it to clear any hindrances
Husband- Semen analysis at least 2- done 4 weeks apart preferably in an infertility center ( examination done by andrologist), Blood sugars
Wife - Blood Sugars, Thyroid profile
Ultrasound scans to evaluate Uterus , Ovaries & adnexa
Confirm tubal patency- most important- Tube is the connection
between uterus & ovaries( the bridge where sperm meets the egg &
forms a baby) this is size of hair follicle & cannot be seen on scans.
So check with HSG( Xray with dye), or SSG ( Scan with dye) or
Laparoscopy
If all this done & found normal , nothing can stop a pregnancy with God's will
Hope I have clarified your queries, do write back if anymore queries
All the best
