Will my contraceptive pill be effective right away if I take it 2 days after the 7-day break week?

It is recommended to use an additional method of contraception, such as a condom, for 7 days if a dose is missed during the first week of taking the contraceptive pill. It is also suggested to take a pregnancy test in about 1 month as monthly bleeding is not a reliable sign of not being pregnant. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
