Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The difficulty in ovulation after stopping the oral pills is reversible and normal ovulation is resumed within six months of stopping the oral pills.
You can confirm about your ovulation by getting an ultrasound for follicular study done. Alternatively you can test your urine for LH surge using the test kits available in the market and plan your relations accordingly.
You can also consult a gynecologist who will prescribe you ovulation inducing drugs like clomiphene which will help you in early conception.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Hallo Dr. Tayal,
Thanks so much for your reply. I was at my woman Doctor today and explained everything to her as well and she tested my Blood and saw that i have problem with my hormones, they are abnormal, and said maybe that could be my problem of not getting pregnant,so she told me she will give a medicine that will help me see my periods and the 1st day of my peroid i should repeat the XXXXXXX pills again,i dont know if it will work because i used XXXXXXX for the passed 6 months already and nothing changed. Please advice me on that? Thanks

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
As per my knowledge, XXXXXXX pills contain Vitamin E only. You need to start with ovulation inducing agent like clomiphene citrate to help you ovulate normally and conceive.
You can consult another infertility specialist for a proper management. XXXXXXX pills are not likely to help you much.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.

Yes. Postinor 2 pills do cause an irreversible infertility. The chances of getting pregnant are still there.
Best wishes.
