You should act like you have never taken Birth Control before as far as protection goes. Start taking birth control just like you did for the first time you started taking birth control (if you have forgotten, read the instruction pamphlet with your pills) and use a back up contraceptive (condom) for the first 30 days before having sex without a condom.

Will you have a normal period the first month you get off birth control?
It's very unlikely that you'd have a normal period the first month off birth control (I'm assuming by 'birth control' what you actually mean is the combination pill - please don't use these terms interchangeably, there are many forms of birth control!). Your first 'period' will be your withdrawal bleed as normal, but after that it may take a few months to get a real period again. It can also take up to 12 months for your cycles to regulate again once you stop using hormonal birth control.
I've been on oral birth control for 2 months now and I just had my period and started the pill back up again how long should I wait to have unprotected sex again?
It's only the first month. Oral birth control takes 30 days to be fully effective.
What to epect for being off birth control for a month?
Menstruation and you are fertile again, everything back to normal.
You stopped taking birth control six months ago and you just got your period twice last month and you want to get pregnant again?
Check out the fertility awareness site and if that doesn't help see a doctor.
Can you skip a month of birth control pills?
Yes, but it is not recommended. If you do decide to skip your birth control for a month be sure to use a back-up method such as condoms, to prevent pregnancy because all the hormones from the birth control will be depleted from your system. Skipping your birth control may also cause unwanted side effects as well, such as: late or irregular periods, or spotting or breakthrough bleeding. When you do begin taking you birth control again, be sure to wait at least 2 months before you have unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy. It is not good to skip your birth control or take frequent breaks either. If you do find that the pill is not for you, you should consult your doctor to find a method that is better for you.
How long does birth control stays in your body if you've only used it correctly for one month?
It doesn't. If you are trying to become pregnant, it may take a few months for ovulation to begin happening at a regular interval again. However, if you are having unprotected sex and do not want a pregnancy, you need another form of birth control.
Why do you have your period 3 times in a month and plus iam taking birth control?
In the first three months of using hormonal birth control, a woman may have irregular bleeding. This side effect improves with time.
Can you get pregnant if you don't take the birth control for a month?
Yes you can get pregnant if you have vaginal sex and have not taken birth control for 1 month.
Will birth control stop working if you dont take it for a few months then start again?
Once you stop taking birth control, within 7 days of stopping it you will begin to ovulate and put yourself at risk of pregnancy. Before you re-start birth control, perform a pregnancy test. If the test is negative, you can re-start birth control. If the test is positive, see your Doctor for confirmation. When you re-start birth control, you cannot have unprotected sex until you've been on birth control for one whole month. So until this time you need to use a condom for 4 weeks.
Can you be on birth control for a month and stop and get pregnant?
Assuming that you are having unprotected sex you are at a higher risk to get pregnant anytime that you are not taking birth control. Also birth control is only really effective when it has been taken consistently for 3 months every day at or close to the same time of day.
When you only have your period every four months because of birth control do you still ovulate every month?
No, the point of birth control is so that your body will not ovulate so that you will not get pregnant. Your period is withdrawal bleeding, which is not the same as regular periods.
Is it a good idea to start using birth control when you have been off of it for a month and a half and you and your husband are going to try to have a baby in 3-4 months?
Well this is a first for me. Uh if you want to get pregnant you don't take birth control.
