You can confirm this information by checking the FDA insert that came with your birth control pill, or by calling your prescriber or pharmacist.
For reasons of patient error, some health care providers recommend that new users, particularly teens, use a back up method for a month because of the increased possibility of missing a pill, not because the pills, when taken as directed, take that long to start to work.
