I sometimes get my period and sometimes don't, so I am wondering if I were to have intercourse while on the white or purple pill am I still protected from pregnancy?

Hello, Chels! How are you?

As long as you haven't missed any of the active tablets, then you are protected, regardless of whether or not you have a period.

The FDA lists the other possible side effects of oral contraceptives as including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight changes and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?
