I'd be talking to the doctor to establish why your periods are so long between each one. The pill is only creating a trick to your body to think it is pregnant, then the 'period' is actually a withdrawal from the pills hormones bleed and not a true period.

It sounds like you might have a pituitary disorder. If you want to become pregnant in the future and you aren't having regular periods then, you probably won't get pregnant.

If you do go off the pill, make sure b/f uses condoms, just in case you do ovulate and get pregnant.

I was just curious what pill you're talking about exaclty. Birth Control pill?  There's really a super small change you'd get pregnant while taking this.  It is given to prevent pregnany. As far as coming off of the pill (if it's the birth control)  to regulate your periods there are other pills they can give you if you're trying to conceive.  Read up on Provera!  It's given to women with PCOS.  Hope this helps!  Best of luck to you. :)
