Hello dear
I understand your concern
Levest should be started form the first day of the period to prevent the pregnancy.
If you have started form the 1st day then continue to take upt to 21 days every day on specific time.
On regualr use, it has highly effective in preventing the pregnancy (just 0.5% failure rate)
But if you started it from between form the period, it will not protect against the pregnancy.
If you have did sex in the fertile phase of period then take I pill to prevent the pregnancy.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty if water and do regular exercise
Hope this may help you

Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
