I am not familiar with the brand of pills.
However, if you start your pill on the
first day of your period you are
immediately protected. It would be 7 days
if you had started during any other time
of your cycle to be protected. therefore,
you are protected from unwanted pregnancy
as long as you have taken them as
directed. Please keep in mind that it does
not protect agianst and std's.
