A member asked:
Would it be just fine to have sex with condoms while start the first week of birth control pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: In fact it is recommended that women use a back up method of birth control when starting their first pack of birth control pills. Condoms work very well for this. Generally after being on the pill for 2 weeks backup is no longer needed.
