Oral BCP "protection: If you started the "Loesrin" on day two of your period, and the period was "regular" (that is you have a period every 28-32 days), you are "protected " against ovulation. Make sure you take the active pills at the same time every evening (and not in the AM) and do not allow more than 5-7 days to go by before starting the next cycle, after you finish the active pills.
