How long did it take you to concieve off of birth control?

How long did it take, what method were you using?  Estimate from the time the contraception was no longer "effective" (24 hours after the pill, 13 weeks after depo provera, immediately after IUD removal, immediately after stopping condom use)

Long-term methods for this poll would include the hormonal IUD, Depo Provera (the shot), and Implanon or other birth control implants. I'm considering the copper IUD under daily and non-hormonal because it does not interrupt the ovulatory cycle.

I would count that as non-hormonal and under 3 months since that was the last method you were using and nuvaring would be completely out of your system. If you can, please vote in the poll too. <3
