text: will i ever be able to conceive? i'm 28 years old and have been on the birth controll pill since i was 13 will i ever be able to have kids, or is there no hope? because if i have to i will stop the pill now, in hopes that i could still get pregnant. i want to be a mother so bad, but i've just been waiting for the right time in my life. i did stop taking the pill when i was 20 and got pregnant but things didn't happen as well as i thought it would. the pill is a safer form of birth control than the shot for women who would one day like to conceive. i would say that your chances are still pretty good for getting pregnant, but your doctor may have some comments or concerns. talk to him/her, and you will have all the information you need. good luck!
