Hi,

Yasmin pills are combined contraceptive pills. They are not emergency contraceptives.

After one week of starting combined oral contraceptives, you may participate in sex. Because their effects may start from after one week of starting.

You consumed four pills at a time but not sure how they effective.

Please consult your gynecologist, she will examine and treat you accordingly

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
