A member asked:
I stopped from a pill for 7mos & would want to take them again. can i take the same brand of pill i used previously & how long before i can have sex?

Yes: can take same pill. Best to start on first day of next period. Should be protected from pregnancy after 3 weeks on pill. Some say 2 weeks but 3 weeks safer (in my humble opinion). Hope this was helpful. Best of luck. Dr. R
