How long after i start birth control patches again after my period does it take for me to be protected from pregnancy? had unprotected sex 2 days in

May be pregnant: BC works by fooling your body into believing you are pregnant and preventing release of eggs. It does not help prevent release until it builds up in your system. Most doc's recommend backup BC (condom) for at least a month, but some meds say a week or 2.Your exposure 2 days in leaves you at risk of pregnancy.
