Does the birth control pill lead to infertility later on in life?

My mom and my friend’s mom told me that going on the birth control pill when you’re young (teens or early 20s) can make it hard to conceive when you’re older and want to get pregnant. I was supposed to go on the birth control pill when I was 14 to regulate periods, but my mom wouldn’t let me for that reason; however my doctor said that the pill doesn’t affect fertility later on in life. Is it true that the pill affects fertility?

Can the cessation of periods cause infertility?

If a teen girl has had periods before, but they’ve suddenly stopped, and now she takes birth control pills to continue having them, can this cause infertility?
The reason the periods stopped is due to sudden weight loss. The weight loss was caused by an eating disorder which could not be technically classified as a "disorder" but it contained the same types of mindsets.

Is there a Depo-Provera lawsuit regarding infertility?

I have been off of the shot for 6 years. Since being off of the shot, my periods came back heavier and more painful than before. My hormones are out of whack and for three years my Fiance’ and I have not been able to conceive. I have read several websites with hundreds of women who have the same issues. Does anyone know if there is a class action lawsuit regarding infertility? If not, why isn’t there one?
