How long?

Question

Hi everyone! I'm 23 and I've been abstinent up until now. Tomorrow I'm ordering birth control through NURX and I was wondering how long it takes for The Pill  to start working? One day? One week? One month?

Answer

One week

Answer

one week

Answer

The pill should be set in your system and working properly in one month. It can be earlier than this, but depending on what day you start the birth control during your cycle it’s best to have the one month rule in mind to ensure you’re covered.

Answer

To be completely safe, it can take up to one full dosage (one month). One of my friends got pregnant in high school after only having used birth control for a week or two.
