It has 92 percent efficacy.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Ma'am
Thank you for being at the 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I have gone through your query in detail.
The pill you are taking is a combined contraceptive pill. It is effective to prevent pregnancy. This will arrest ovulation and prevent pregnancy. But it is not 100 percent efficient. It is only 92 percent. So better to do a urine pregnancy test after a week.
Let me know if anything not clear.
Happy to help you.
Thanks
