Hello,

See oral contraceptive pill provide 99% effectiveness provided you take the pill regularly. Either take it regularly from 5th day of the period or if you start from the middle of the cycle then the first 7 days you have to use a condom. If your cycles are regular of 28 days then between 11th to 18th days if he has sex then there is an increased chance of pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sheetal Agarwal
