I did a search and found that Microgynon is a combination oral contraceptive pill.

Typically, with oral contraceptives you are advised to use a backup method (i.e. condoms) for the first 7 days of your first pack.

Please read the information that came with your prescription. There should be an information booklet/paper with the Microgynon. It is best to read all of it so you can be familiar with possible side effects, what can decrease its effectiveness and proper use. The information packet also has information on what to do if you miss a pill. Save this information for future reference.

Good explnations anne.

As she said, you are safe after 7 days of active pills. You do not need to wait the entire month.
