Birth control pills?

When taking the Microgynon 30 birth control pills if I start taking it on a Thursday will I be protected against pregnancy Wednesday the following week or is it Thursday-Thursday?

Rightly you have to start your pill on the day of your period then you are safe at any time. If you took the pill at any part of your cycle then 7 days are not safe. So I would say it is Thursday.
