If you have sex, always have protected sex. You can still get pregnant on the pill and you never know where your partner has been.

keep in mind that EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT and that i'm a guy and not a doctor. this is my personal account:\nmy girlfriend started taking birth control over a year ago. she started taking the pills in the middle of her cycle too. her first period was irregular and really bad, she said. the next period was normal and "so much better" she said.\nif you are asking about how long to wait to have sex, i would recommend you wait until after you finish the first month of pills. we waited only 7 days (as directed by her doctor) and we think this was the cause of the first period being so irregular. after a few months, your body will adjust and your period should occur like clockwork.\ngood luck!

You need to wait at least 10 days after having sex, but I'd say wait 2 weeks. The sooner you take it, the more chances there is of getting a false negative.

even on the pill and using condoms you can still get pregnant and std's (herpes, warts)\n\n(the pill does not start working for at least a month)

It depends on a lot of things..where you are in your menstrual cycle, for example. The chances of someone getting pregnant within an entire year of unprotected sex is 84%.\n\nIf it's been within five days of unprotected sex, then you can take emergency contraception, or Plan B. It's 75-89% effective against pregnancy and it has VERY few side effects (the main ones being some people get nauseous and some people have their next period early, and it might be lighter or heavier than usual.) It's a very safe medication as well.\n\nTo find places near you that carry emergency contraception, go to www.not-2-late.com.\n\n\nIf the incident was over 5 days ago, then it takes two weeks from an act of unprotected sex for a pregnancy test to come out positive (if you got pregnant from that incident.)

Every women's cycle is different.  If you are on some type of birthcontrol it varies.  Maybe 4-5days , or maybe even up to 7days until you take a certain pill in your pack that will stop it.  If you are experiencing problems you should go see a GYN dr.

If you don't want to wear a condom, only have sex in a long term committed relationship in which both of you have been tested and you are 100% positive that she isn't cheating and that she is also on the pill.\n\nOtherwise, abstinence is always 100% fool-proof.\n\nIf you don't like either of these options, there are extra sensitive condoms out there.  They are thin to give you that added feeling but protect too.  Check out the web or go browsing the aisles (an adult shop has a lot of varieties) for different options.

It is best to wait the 3 months to allow the birth control medicine to leave your system. While the medication left in your system may not cause defects or problems directly with the fetus, it may cause you to have problems carrying the child to term through miscarriage. Give yourself the 3 months to lessen the chances of that, it's not something you want to experience.

The best time to start the pill is in the first 5 days of your period.  Starting off-cycle, like you propose, seems to make the side effects more pronounced, and may make you more inclined to spot.  \n\nPersonally I wouldn't suggest it, since you don't know what your reaction to the pill or to skipping your period will be.  Just personal experience... it's not a health risk.  If you already have a prescription for the pill, inside each packet is a little instruction sheet which tells you that brand's particular suggestions for starting the pill if you don't start it on the first day of your period.\n\nAnd FYI, if you go ahead and start the pill midcycle, you are NOT protected against pregnancy for at least the first week, so use backup contraception if you're having sex.

If you are taking a 21 day birth control pill, do not stop for 7 days, but start a fresh pack.  If you are taking a 28 day pill, the last 7 days are inactive pills; take the first 21 days, discard the last 7 and start a fresh pack.  \n\nHowever, you can only do this with monphasic birth control pills (ie: pills that have the same dosage daily).

If you've been off the pill for more than a week, then you should wait till you get your period next.  Once you get your period, you can do the Sunday start or start immediately.  In the meantime, use a backup method of birth control.

It takes 2 to tango...use the pill (to prevent pregnancy) and condoms (to prevent STDs). Also, make sure you both get a health check to be certain neither of you have caught anything (it's easy to catch something and not know!).

Even if you have used a 1-day or 3-day treatment, you should still wait about 9-10 days after your first application to safely have sex. Despite the higher dose-shorter day treatments, the infection still takes about 7 days to be completely healed. After that seven days, you still should wait a couple days for insurance. And if you've used a 7-day treatment, you'll want to give your body a little time to clean itself of all the cream you've been putting in.

If it's in the middle of your pack, then the likelihood of getting pregnant is VERY low. If it's at the beginning or end of your pack, the chances are higher. If you're more than 12 hours late in taking it and it's from the beginning or end of your pack, you should continue taking them as normal but use a condom for the next 7 days.

are you mad having unprotected sex?? there are tests on the market you can get which detect the ppregnancy hormone on the first day of your missed period. which would be 2 weeks after your unprotected sex, as you can normally only concive between day 12-16 of your cycle.day 1 being the first day of your period./
