Will i still be protected from pregnancy?


i have started using birth control again recently and have started using the quickstart method. i started a week ago and within this week i got my period. i have continued using the pills everyday....will i be protected from pregnancy without using a second method of birth control (ie: condoms)? my period is almost over and i have taken the first week of pills. your advice is greatly appreciated.

You're protected once you've had an active pill each day for at least seven days in a row - even if you are bleeding.

The only way you'll be protected from pregnacy 100% is by not having sex. You should ALWAYS use more than 1 method of birth control (condoms with spermacide on them, spermacide that you insert just before sex). Please take care- the pill is not foolproof.

wear a freakin condom.
b.c. isnt made to protect 100%.
so just dont freak.

if u do use a condom.
TROJAN's are cheap these days

If in doubt...use a condom too.
