My DR told me to wait a full month of taking yaz before having unprotected sex. i know there have been some forums where i believe the packet says two weeks. I waited a month before having unprotected sex just to be on the safe side.

Most say it takes a week to be effective. Since you have been taking it a whole month, you can have sex and be protected from pregnancy for as long as you continue taking your pills regularily.
