Sperm is not affected by hormonal Birth Control; it does the same thing it does if you're not on birth control, except that there's some decrease in how much sperm can get into the uterus (due to thickening of the cervical mucus). Hormonal birth control affects the egg.

What happens to ejaculated sperm when on birth control and on your period?

When on birth control, the combined pill usually prevents ovulation, so there is no egg for the sperm to fertilize. If you are also on your period, the uterine lining is shedding, making it less likely for sperm to survive and fertilize an egg. So in most cases, ejaculated sperm would not result in pregnancy during this time.

What if you stop taking birth control while sperm is still in you?

If you stop you'll probably end up pregnant. Yes sperm is still in you. Birth control controls the hormones in your body so the birth control is already doing it's job. By the time your body absorbs the sperm or disperses it, ( a couple of days), the birth control hormones are still present so it is unlikely you would get pregnant at this time. But after this, you won't be protected against pregnancy and your chances of becoming pregnant increase every day after that. In other words, it takes a few days for the birth control to stop working even after stopping the birth control.
