When Does the Birth Control Pill Start Working?
If you are taking your birth control pills using the Sunday start, you should use a back-up method of birth control for the first seven days. If you are starting your pills on the first day of your period, you are protected immediately. But remember, pills do not prevent sexually transmitted diseases. You should check with your doctor for any concerns you have and read the information that came with your pills for any more information.
