You don’t mention if your partner is new to starting the pill or if she has been on the pill for several months.
If she is a new pill starter, it takes at least 7 days of continuous use before the birth control pills are effective. If you have unprotected sex prior to the pills being effective, there is the risk of pregnancy.
If she was on them in the past, and just restarted the pills, the same rule as above applies, 7 days before its effective.
If your partner has been taking her pills correctly & consistently for several months, then her protection is effective.
