Hard to say: Most docs encourage a backup for the first month while your body gets used to the pill.Some of the pill companies say they are good 2 wks out.Since the work by preventing egg release, you could be at risk if it did not work on the first cycle and you had sex after releasing an egg.At your age a condom provides extra protection from any possible STD's which is always a possibility.
