Question
dear expert,will i get pregnant if i engage in unprotected intercourse during my 7day no-pill break.in other words if i consistently use the pill correctly,does this mean that i can have unprotected sex at any point in time in the month?does it also mean that i am safe from pregnancy or will i get pregnant if i hav unprotected sex during my 7day break. my second question is:Is it ok to take regular pain killers while im on the pill?  thank you in advance for your help.

Answer
I think it it ok to take regular pain killers while on the pill. But ask your doctor to make sure. Any time you have sex, even on birth control, you can get pregnant, it's a small chance.

On a side note, do you have any side effects from the pill? The reason I'm asking is because, in general, I don't recommend the birth control pills because of risks and side effects. So anyway, let me know how you are doing. My private email address is CHERYL51@aol.com
