The general consensus is that if you are menstruating regularly, you are presumably ovulating. But this is not absolutely conclusive. Subtle abnormalities can and do occur within cycles. Over-the-counter testing with ovulation predictor kits can be used to verify that the luteinizing hormone, LH has surged, signalling that ovulation has occurred.
It is a safe bet to wait anywhere from 3-6 months after stopping your birth control pills to consider becoming pregnant. This gives your body a chance to normalise your cycles and begin to ovulate on a regular basis.
If you are in doubt, consult a doctor. Look for one that specialises in reproductive endocrinology and infertility.
