ELI5 If some contraceptives stop your period, what happens to the egg?

Can your uterus just keep it to use later in life? Would you never go through menopause?

Unfortunately no, you don't get to keep the eggs that you aren't ovulating. Basically, your ovaries still select an egg and begin forming a follicle to ovulate the egg, but without the correct hormones the follicle doesn't mature and finish the process. 
  
You still lose eggs, those eggs just don't get a chance to be fertilized.
