when do my birth control pills take full effect?
i'm on tri-cyclen-lo birth control pills theres 3 packs and i'm on my last week of the first pack i'm just wondering if i'm safe to have sex after the first pack is done or do i have to finnish all three packs ?
Ask the doctor who prescribed them or you should have a pamphlet of information that came with the pills.
My understanding is that you have to take it for at least a month. However, call your doctor's office to confirm or read the direction. I do not know anything about tri-cyclen-lo. Just remeber that BC is not 100% and does not protect you from STDs.
