I was on birth control pills a few years ago and frequently had unprotected sex with my boyfriend for about 2 years. None of the incidents ever resulted in pregnancy. I went off the pill because I left my boyfriend and the pill began giving me bad headaches, since I figured sex wasn't in my near future, I decided there was no reason for me to go through the trouble at the time. I just entered another serious relationship a few months ago and decided that its time I got back on some form of birth control. I got my prescription for the pill a few days ago, but I'm going to wait until the first day of my period to begin taking them.
Now, a few years wiser, I'm wondering exactly how safe it is to have unprotected sex while on the pill? It wouldn't be such a problem, but I absolutely HATE sex with condoms, and get next to no pleasure at all out of it.
Also, as far as I understand it, if you begin taking the pill on the first day of your period, you're protected immediately. Is this true?

Well since you did not use any protection then the chances are pretty high. It depends on her period though.
