Hi all!
I wonder if anyone can shed some light on the contraception pill - Desogestrel. My mind has gone completely blank since being off it for such a long time and I'm struggling to get hold of my doctor. Does anyone know how long you have to take it before you are completely protected? I tried to Google it but it says conflicting information and want to make sure I'm using it properly without any surprised another 9 months down the line!! Some places says 2 days, others say 7.
Thank you!!

If past day 5 of a natural cycle or after day 21 after delivery, and no chance of pregnancy you can quick start it and you’ll be protected after 2 days.
