yes you can, no Birth Control will give you a 100% guarentee of not getting an STD.. birth control is used to protect sperm not deseases.
Its depends which method you use, condoms for example do while the pill does not
The only contraceptives that can help prevent STDs are condoms, or similar barrier methods.
It is possible, via pelvic contact with someone infected with herpes or genital warts, the infection will pass even if you wear a condom.
Birth control doesn't affect STDs.

It is possible. Antibiotics which are used to treat some forms of STD's can definitely decrease the effectiveness of birth control.

How long does orthotricyclen lo take to work?

It sounds like normal birth control. Technically it could take up to a month for your birth control to be in full effect. But this could be different based on they types of birth control you take, This information should be located within the packaging of your birth control. It is a hormone therapy. If you are concerned about becoming pregnant while starting your birth control you should use another form of contraception (condoms). Or just not have sex in that time. (You should probably use condoms anyway just as a safety measure as birth control does not protect against std's.) If you are concerned that you are pregnant you should consult a doctor and stop taking your birth control. Birth control is not an abortion pill (that is something totally different) but it could potentially harm the fetus. A good way to know if you are pregnant is missing periods (if you have been taking your birth control regularly it should be easy to calculate).
