You can start taking it now if the doctor has given it to you, but it is not recommended that you have sex until after 6 weeks as your body needs time to heal.

If you are then you need a special type of pill (I think it's called the mini pill)

I've always started at 6 weeks, and I've had 3 c sections. But that's when my Dr wrote the script.
