Q: When Could I Get Pregnant????

Hey everyone,
I have been in my relationship for about 5 years, and having sex for 4.5 of them, and been on the pill for about 4. My question is.... I am currently on alesse 21, after I take my last pill of the 21 do I need to stop having sex until I start taking them again after the 7 days? Like I will take my last one on a tuesday, and I wont get my period until the friday. Can I have sex until I get my period, or is there a big chance that I will get pregnant? Also, if I shouldn't. Then when is it ok to have sex when I start up my pills again? The first one, or should I wait until I have taken like 3? Any info will help.

Thanks!! :p

Hi. If you are taking the pills exactly as directed without missing any, etc. You are protected all the time no matter what time of the month it is or if you are on your period. :) hope this helps!

Yes you are completely protected during your placebo week...Which is your period week.. Many many women do not start a period until wed or thurs of a placebo week, and they started their placebos on sunday.. Your body has to register that it is time for a period.
