Ok, so, I'm starting the birth control pill Yaz tonight. How long to I have to be on it before I can have sex without having to worry about becoming pregnant? [Even though I know there's always a chance. He'll have a condom too.] My doctor said it will work the night I start it :/ I've never heard of it working that soon. But, I have an irregular period, and, I was wondering if that has anything to do with how long I should wait. And, I was wondering if I have to take it at the same time every night. I had to be on birth control in sixth grade for my period, because I had it almost the whole month, and, my doctor said I had to take it at the same time every night, or else it wouldn't work. Thanks! (link)
I heard that it takes atleast a month to completly work. I would use a condom until you feel you are ready.
You should take it the same time but if you are a little off (and hour or two) it shouldn't hurt you. Just make sure you don't miss a day and if you do to take it the second you remember.

honestly it depends on the person and the person's body. The only way you will find out is if you do it!

Ok thanks :] Wait so like, after a month, lets say we don't have a condom, [like, just one time] and we have sex, should I be ok? [I doubt I'll ever be in that situation, but, it's good to know]
