Birth control pills help irregular cycles become regular without ovulation. Cycles and periods during the usage of birth control pills become normal in duration and repetition but there is no ovulation in the middle of the cycle. Therefore, CONCEPTION IS IMPOSSIBLE WHEN YOU ARE ON BIRTH CONTROL! I suggest you wait until your cycles/periods become normal and regular. Then you can stop taking birth control pills and try to conceive.
