Question

I dont think i am, i was just wondering cause I didnt know

Answer 1

your are covered during your inactive pills. your covered as long as you take them on schedule.

Answer 2

It is fine to have unprotected s*x on inactive pills as long as you took all the active pills as directed. If you need to protect against disease then of course you need the condom.

Answer 3

You're safe kid, and smart for using a condom too.  

Answer 4

If you took all the active pills correctly then you are protected while on the inactive pills.  It would be pretty stupid to have a birth control pill that didn't work a quarter of the time...

Answer 5

The 99.9% protection the pill provides (if taken properly) applies to the whole month, even when you are on the inactive pills!

A condom isn't needed (unless for STD purposes), but if you used one, that's extra protection.

Pregnancy is extremely unlikely.
