Menopause04/26/2007 |
I am almost 49 yrs old. I`ve been on birth control pills instead of HRT. If I stop taking the bc pills is it possible to become pregnant at my age?
Yes, it is possible to become pregnant if you are not completely menopausal (usually defined as one year of no natural menstrual periods). Not having menstrual periods on birth control pills does not count.
