A member asked:
Am i protected after the first week of alesse? i had sex during the first month and on placebo pills.. never missed a pill. am i pregnant?!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: You are protected after 7 full days on the pill. Great that you didn't miss a pill. Even with perfect use, 4-6% of women using pill over course of year will become pregnant, so even with perfect use it's still possible, but by definition after 7 days you are protected. Good luck !
