HI, well first, being in the health field, I would never recommend unsafe sex, but if you do, birth control is one way to go. From the doctors that I have worked with say that it takes, if you have never taken birth control before, 3 months. You start the sunday after your period and you have to take it for up to three months before everything is back to normal and you are safe. If she is switching brands of birth control pills, it only takes a month to be effective. Until then have her try a female condom. This is actaully inserted into her vagina and can be left in there for, I believe, up to 6 hours. Good luck and make sure to be tested for STD's and AIDS.
