Can You ovulate if you don’t have a period?

How long does it take for ovulation after stopping the pill?
Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation out there about these methods. You may have heard it takes at least three months for ovulation to start up again after you stop the pill.

Can You ovulate and not know you are pregnant?
You can ovulate and not know it. You will only know you ovulated if you get your period or, if you had sexual intercourse within your fertile window, you get pregnant. You may not realize you’re pregnant for a while, though, since you haven’t been getting your periods. You won’t have a period to be “late” if you haven’t been getting one.
