Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

OCP doesn’t cause infertility on longer use. Your menstrual cycle will return to normal once you stop the pills. You can conceive normally after you stop the pills.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
