A member asked:
When after first taking birth control can you have unprotected sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
One pack?: I always recommend using condoms for the first pack of pills, this helps ensure that you arent missing pills which makes them less effective. However, they are theoretically working after 4 doses, also, remember that pills dont stop stds, so if you are at risk then use condoms as well.
