Is Unprotected Sex Safe While Taking The Placebo Pills?

Hi, I've been taking Lo Loestrin Fe for precisely two months now and my period has not completely regulated itself yet. However, I was wondering if I could have unprotected sex now without being at risk for pregnancy? Also, can I have unprotected sex while taking the placebo pills?

Hello.In a women taking birth control pills, during the days she takes the placebo pills,usually menstruation appears. If menstruation occurs, there is no possibility of pregnancy but if menstruation does not appear,there is a risk of pregnancy.
I wish you good health.
