Q: Loestrin 24 Fe question

I have a question that might sound kind of silly. I start my second pack of Loestrin tomorrow, and I'm just wondering whether or not I still need to use a back-up method of birth control for the first seven days or if I'll automatically be protected again.

You are protected after the first week on it. So you are fine.

The first 7 days is only on the first pack so you are good to go.

A note of caution: nothing is 100%. I personally choose to use condoms as well as the pill for added safety. It helps him last longer too Wink
