PILL - WHEN DOES IT TAKE EFFECT?
Hi, I have been on the Yaz pill for a couple of months... My script ran out and I was off it for about 3 weeks. I''ve just started taking the pill in the " silver section" again now. If I enter the normal section, how long does it take to kick in? So in other words, if I enter the normal section, will I be " safe" immediately or is there a time frame I should be aware of? Kindly advise? Thanks!

You need 7 active pills before you are safe.
