Hey what's up all?? My gf recently started birth control and it's gonna be the 8th pill and she wants to have unprotected sex it says it is safe to do but how safe is it really to do?

Did she start taking the pill on the day her period started?

As long as she has taken all her pills at the same time, hasn't missed any, and hasn't vomited any up within two hours of taking them, or had bad diarrhoea, then she should be protected from pregnancy, and it's alright to have unprotected sex (assuming you have both been tested for STDs of course).

My dr. said that I could go ahead and keep taking the active (red) pills and skip the nonactive (white) pills. He said I probably won't get a period again unless I stop taking them all together, so does this mean that I shouldn't be fertile or shouldn't be ovulating?

If you have been taking your pills correctly (for more about that see the post in our FAQs) you should not be fertile and should be quite safe.
