How Long Do You Have to Wait? Posted: 06-20-06 01:45am
Girlfriend just finished up the first pack
of active pills, she is now on the green
(inactive) pills. Is it safe to have sex
now?

Hell no! The green pills are sugar pills

protected sex even if your using
protection its not that good of an idea

Woah woah woah.. 2 words for you buddy:
hell no!!!!!!!!
Those "green" ones are sugar pills that
she gets at the end of the pack, because
she is going to get her period probably in
3 days. Sex is never a great idea during
this time unless you have backup
contraception such as a condom.
Remember..Don't be a fool, wrap your tool.

I work for planned parenthood..When you
have a degree and prescribe drugs you tend
to know what you are talking about!!!!
Yes she is fully protected during the
placebo week.

my favorite line on ehealth ever. Thank
you, .Carifairy. Sometimes it feels like
an uphill battle to educate people about
their bodies and birth control. You are a
fantastic resource for this site.

Thanks=)
i usually don't like to tell people my
education or too much about where I work,
because I have had people ask me to "call
em in an rx" or some other request that I
cannot do...
I don't want lots of women to become
scared that they are not being protected
during their placebo week. That would not
be so great, lots of paranoia.

Yes cari, thank you so much for your help.
I like how uneducated people (aka.
People that don't know what they are
talking about) are always so quick to
respond to questions. Hell no! In two
different posts. Sheesh.
On another note, I may not have been clear
that this is her first pack. Does that
make a difference when considering the
placebo week.

No difference at all.
And when she starts her new pack she does
not need to wait 7 days.
Also some women do not get their periods
for 3 days inot the placebo week, so if it
doe not happen 'right away' do not get too
worried.
