I just started my birth control on Wednesday, and I'm also on my period. Is it safe to have unprotected sex while you're on your period and on bc?

NO you need to have been on the pill for 2 weeks before it is effective. you should use a condom in this case. aud 05-13-2005, 11:28 AM As far as I can remember I thought a woman could not get pregnant while she is on her period? laomy 05-13-2005, 02:15 PM NO you need to have been on the pill for 2 weeks before it is effective. you should use a condom in this case. all pills ive seen along with the patch and nuvaring say you need to be on it 7 days before it works. not two weeks. Daisies4monkeys 05-13-2005, 06:42 PM Laomy is right. And if you start the pill on the first day of your period, you are fully protected immediately. :) Daisies4monkeys 05-13-2005, 06:43 PM As far as I can remember I thought a woman could not get pregnant while she is on her period? It's rare, but in women not on birth control, it CAN happen. It all depends on when you ovulate and such. So in women who have short cycles, they could theoretically be ovulating while having thier period. aud 05-13-2005, 09:22 PM Does blood do anything to condoms though? Daisies4monkeys 05-13-2005, 10:23 PM Nope. Blood won't hurt the condom at all. Will act as a lubricant, actually. :) |
