How soon do birth contol pills become successful?


I've heard 7 days after beginning them..or one month.. 2 months.. sigh. So confused! thx for input.

Answers:    Well, I get pregnant on the pill at age 16 despite taking it every single day on time. Come to find out 15 years subsequent, that it takes a full 30 days to become effective. I thought it be 7 days as well.

My problem was my pill brand be switched mid cycle and my Dr. at the time never told me that it would take time to become effective. I thought that since I be taking it everyday it would work.

So,talk to your Dr. about your specific pill brand and I would push for using alternate methods for the first full month..
The box usually says to wait at most minuscule 7 days but doctors will recommend that you use an alternate form of protection for 3 months. I don't understand the discrepancy either! NOT 3 months. that girl have no clue what she talkin bout. give it a whole week and you'll be well-mannered! promise. a month if you kinda paranoid and just wanna be triple sure..
3 months for full effectiveness Depends on the pill, and where on earth in your cycle you start it. Consult your doctor, it's usually a week or so..
3 months 1 week.
3 Months.
