A member asked:
How long after you start ortho-cyclen is safe to have sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Same day with condom: If you are going to use a back up method, then you can start the same day you begin the bcp. If the bcp is the only form of birth control you are use, then wait until you begin your second package for maximum protection.
