Can I Have Unprotected Intercourse Inspite Of Being On Belara?

I started belara today and Im on the 3rd day of my period. When can i safely have unprotected sex. I haven t taken the pill for a few years. The packet and many websites say that I only need to wait 7 days but the pharmacist says that I need to wait at least a month.

Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I will recommend that you wait for as much as a month as well. In the meantime, you may want to continue having protected sex. This will ensure that all is well before you indulge into unprotected sex. Please remember that pills do not protect against infections like HIV, syphilis, HPV, chlamydia, etc. Protection and pills is the best course of action.

I hope this helps. I your daughter well.
