Can you test for fertility while on birth control pills?

I saw that First Response has an at-home fertility test. I've been on birth control pills since I was 18 (now 24, started them for problem with my period) and I've always been concerned about my fertility. My husband and I want to start a family in the next few years and I'd like to know ahead of time if we will need to save money for fertility medications, invitro, or adoption.

you are not fertile when you are on birth control pills so it wouldn't be helpful to test for that. the only way to know is to go off the pill and then try! good luck!

You are putting the cart WAY before the horse. If you have had regular GYN exams and your doctor hasn't expressed any concerns, don't stress it. But do yourself a big favor and get a full physical now so you know where you stand in regards to all around health. And no, you CAN'T test for infertility on BC.
