Hi I have not long started the combined pill, I had my 7day break last week and have been retaking the pill for 8days now. Do you know when I am protected again? Thanks

Hi guest,

You are always protected, as long as you take it as directed. During the 7 day break you are unlikely to get pregnant, being at your lowest fertility. There is no "gap" in protection.

Hope it helps.
