Is my birth control still effective after a month of taking it and i start my period and my guy doesnt use a condom?

How effective is the birth control pill for teens?
i just started taking it, i got it from planned parenthood.. they say it is pretty effective and its pretty cheap..i have to get it without my parents knowing, so i dont have a choice on what kind i take... ive been asking around about the side effects, but everyone says something different.. so ill guess ill have to see what happens oh and also the lady told me to take my first pill the day i started my period and if i did, then it would be effective immediately.. but then other sites say different things depending on when you started taking it in your cycle The pill is 99% effective for everyone when taken everyday.

How can the pill fail?
If taken perfectly, the pill can still allow breakthrough ovulation. If 1,000 couples use the pill perfectly over the course of a year, about three couples will experience a pregnancy. More commonly, the pill fails because people miss pills and forget to use a back up birth control method like abstaining from vaginal sex or using condoms.

Is your birth control still good while ovulating?
While the purpose for most formulations of 'the pill' is to prevent ovulation, some forms of the pill do not prevent the egg from being released. The low-dose progesterone-only MiniPill is an example of this, it doesn't necessarily prevent ovulation but prevents the uterine linig from 'accepting' the egg so that implantation doesn't occur as well as causing the cervical mucus to thicken decreasing the ability of sperm to penetrate this barrier. This type of pill may not be as effective as the Progesterone-Estrogen combo pills. Over a year's time, 5-8 out of 100 typical couples using the Pill will experience an accidental pregnancy. The pill is an effective method of birth control but even missing 1 day increases the chances of becoming pregnant. So, in short, if you are on the pill, it isn't likely that you are ovulating, and even if you do ovulate, it should prevent the egg from being implanting into the uterine lining, as well as decreasing the ability of sperm to reach the egg and fertilize it.
