It doesn't. Birth control suppresses ovulation. You would need hormonal treatments to either balance out the hormones, or to induce ovulation.

In very specific cases birth control is sometimes used as a kind of 'reboot' of a woman's hormonal system. The idea is that since birth control completely blocks a woman's natural cycle, using a short course and then quitting can help the woman's hormones start fresh, as it were.
In other words, the idea is not that you will be able while ON birth control, but that you will hopefully be able to after you QUIT it again.

If you or someone you love is struggling to get pregnant, then this will be the most important video you will ever watch https://tr.im/oBj6G
Don't smoke. Smoking ages your ovaries and depletes your eggs prematurely. If you smoke, ask your health care provider to help you quit before conception.
Don't drink alcohol. Research suggests that drinking alcohol appears to decrease fertility and can harm a developing baby. Generally, it's best to avoid alcohol if you're hoping to conceive.
Don't take medication without your health care provider's OK. Certain medications — even those available without a prescription — can make it difficult to conceive. Others might not be safe once you're pregnant.
Don't depend on vaginal lubricants. Various over-the-counter vaginal lubricants can decrease fertility. Saliva can have the same effect. If you need a lubricant, consider mineral oil or canola oil — or ask your doctor for other suggestions.
Don't overdo strenuous exercise. Although moderate physical activity can help promote fertility, going overboard might have the opposite effect. Some research suggests that five or more hours a week of vigorous aerobic activity can actually impair the fertility of a woman who isn't overweight.
