I have been on Lutera for a week and yesterday was the start of my second week. I have been taking it at 8:30am everyday besides the very first day since my appt was later in the day. What I'd like to know, is when is it okay to have unprotected sex? I have read that most pills work when a week is over and sometimes earlier, however I don't want to jump the gun. I'd just like to know what some people's experiences are and what they know on the matter concerning the time it takes to work.
