A member asked:
Is it true that if you take the pill within five days of the beginning of your menses you are protected from pregnancy immediately and is this still true if you have a 23 day cycle once in a while?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: This is not true.. if you want to see if you are pregnant or not, so a pregnancy test 14 and 21 days after sex
