Ortho-TriCyclen... How long does it take for me to be protected?!
Question: I took my first one today.
Answers: I took my first one today.
After one full pill pack you are protected
Wasn't that the birth control that was recently recalled or something?
My bad... that was Ortho Evra, the patch.
remember to use alternate protection for the first 3 months. After that, you should be safe, except from STD's.+
I thiknk you should wait one month. Always use protection with partners that have not been tested, since Ortho-TriCyclen
does not protect agains STD's.
