I took Alesse and had great results.  I took the same pill for years prior to the birth of my second child.  However, after he was born, my body freaked out and I had to change pills.  We tried several diff. kinds, and Alesse was the one for me.  Little to no side-effects, and very effective.  Good luck--MH

I take yasmin and after the first full week of taking it you can have unprotected sex. If you look in the booklet that comes with your pill im sure it will tell you. but my guess is you can.

I'd say you're good to go. Remember the birth control pill is very effective.
Does anyone know much about 'Alesse" ?? I had a hard time with tri cyclen after years of use, so I am going to start alesse. I heard it is not as 'strong' as tri cyclen....
