Am I protected for the first seven days of taking birth control if i started it the day after i got my period?

I read that you are protected if you start taking birth control the first day that you get your period. I started the day after... and I had sex, am I safe?Am I protected for the first seven days of taking birth control if i started it the day after i got my period?
Well it really depends on the type of perscription you have.


Im currently using the Tri-Nessa Birth control pill, and you are protected AFTER the 7 days (of the first ever pack you take). But i suggest that if you are having sex during the first week (just started taking BC) use a back up contraceptive.





hope this helps some

it takes 1 full pack to be fully protected... use back up for 1 mth after starting the pill
