Difference In Birth Control Pills
Posted: 05-06-08 19:54pm

I was on the birth control pill named Lunessa (?), and then i was off them for about 3 months, now i'm back on. It says in the booklet to wait 7 days before having unprotected sex. what does everybody think. Because me and my boyfriend, find it better when we do not have to use a condom, but we have never been unsafe ?

You absolutely must use condoms or some other back up method for the first 7 days if you want to be protected. If you don't like condoms, you should look into spermicide or cervical caps for the week.
