is it ok to have sex when you're taking the placibos?....like the few days before your period actually starts?

I did! I never even took those pills.. I went 3 weeks on the Hormone pills and then a week off pills-- I had sex ALL the time! Even during my period! No problems..Hadn't go pregnant! Hope this helps! and I did that for 4 yrs~

Yes you are still protected. I do that all the time.

Yes, it's fine & safe and I too don't even take the Placebos ,as I find I get bloated on them!

I never take the placebos either, I figure its a week long break of not having to bother remembering anything.
