I have unprotected sex while on birth control on my 6th day of pills. take note that i started taking pills on the first day of my menstruation. i also had unprotected sex on the 10th day of mu pills. am i protected?

If you have taken the pills as prescribed and have been on them for more than a month, your body has responded by not releasing eggs. Your protection is present on all days of the cycle. If the pill is new many OBGYNS advise backup protection the first month until the body adapts.
