Complications

I'm 24 years old and have been diagnoses with reoccurring ovarian cysts (on a monthly basis) and endometriosis (mild to moderate) my doctor put me on birth control to help control the pain and growth of both complications, but my question is what would be my chances of conceiving off the pill? Also, for curiosity, i know the pill has a low risk of pregnancy in healthy women, but would taking the pill and having these complications lower (or eliminate) the chances of accidental pregnancy?
