If you are switching from condoms to the pill, you should not immediately drop the condoms. Check with your doctor about how long it takes the particular kind of pill to build up in your body enough to be reliable.

When you switch birth control pills from the regular version to a generic how long do you have to wait before you can have unprotected sex?
When you switch brands of birth control to a generic, you are still getting the same hormones and the same dosage of hormones, the only difference is that the pills were made by different companies. If you have been on birth control for at least 2 months, it is still safe to have unprotected intercourse even though you are switching birth control. If you haven't been on birth control for at least 2 months you should use a back-up method, such as condoms, during the first week of starting your new birth control. If you want to be even safer, you could wait 2 weeks to have unprotected sex.

Does birth control make your butt big?
Coming from somebody that just had a child,when you take birth control it makes you bigger in different places. But me, I was being silly and got it in my butt and now my butt looks like the back of a truck. But I like it and so does babydaddy..just be careful with what kind of birth control you get. We don't want your butt coming out the size of an ape's azz. Good luck.
