*note: many people who cite the opposite reference very old studies ( more than 20 years old) which utilize high dose EE pills (no longer used for contraception) and/or are poorly done in study design. The studies listed here support the highest quality evidence on this topic by respected leaders in the field. Further evidence supports that not only of combined oral contraceptives “the pill” not decrease future fertility, even continuous pill usage (no placebo pills) and prolonged duration of pill use is not associated with significant differences.
