As long as your partner is taking her pills correctly & consistently, it is unlikely that she will become pregnant.
There are several benefits, other than birth control, that the pills provide to women. Oral contraceptives can help decrease ovarian and uterine cancer,
and helps to prevent certain types of breast cancer. They can help decrease the incidence of pelvic infection and tubal pregnancies.
The pills help women to have regular 28 day menstrual cycles. Along with this regularity, pills may help lighten and/or shorten periods. Any bleeding or
spotting during the inactive pill week is considered a period. If your partner’s period is only 2 or 3 days, that is okay. Many women enjoy having
shorter/lighter periods.
Make sure your partner continues to take her pills every day, around the same time. Taking them correctly maintains good effectiveness for
both birth control and cycle control.
