Hello, Brittney! How are you?
No, if you start it later than the second day of your period, it takes a full 7 days for it to become effective at preventing pregnancy and it is only effective as long as you continue taking it. That's why some women have gotten pregnant from just forgetting to take one of them.
The FDA lists the typical side effects of oral contraceptives as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, breakthrough bleeding and PMS-like symptoms.
Is there anything else I can help with?
