My wife and I are going on a pilgrimage next month. She visited her gynaecologist for delaying her periods during the pilgrimage. The doctor has prescribed the tablet Novelon, which has to be taken once a day. Apparently, the tablet also doubles up as the oral contraceptive pill. Since the tablet also doubles up as the oral contraceptive pill, is it safe for us to have unprotected sex ? Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
