Will my birth control pill remain effective during the inactive tablets?

Hi, I was wondering if it was more risky to have sex while taking the last four birth control pills since they are only made of flour?

Hello ma'am, thank you for your question!

If you take the pill regularly and don't forget, it will still be effective even during the break.

Sincerely,
