Are these birth control symptoms?

I’m aware that the pill can cause irregular bleeding and breast swelling but I’ve been on the mini pill for around 2 weeks now and for the past 3 days my boobs have been feeling very sore but it’s weird because it’s only in my nipples? I think my boobs may have gotten a little bigger because they feel heavier than before and more cushiony but my nipples are so sensitive that it’s almost painful sometimes. I’ve also noticed some redness. Other than that I literally have no other side effects. So if someone could let me know if this is a common symptom from birth control or not? Thanks

When does the mini pill become effective?

I have been taking the Microlut mini pill for the past 8 days and I started it on the second day of my period. The internet, my friends and the information guide my doctor gave me all tell me different things about when it starts to work. My friend who is also on the mini pill said taking it on the first 5 days of your period means it becomes effective almost immediately but my other friend said that I need to wait 3 months for it to fully work. I’m confused?

Please help, need advice!!

So I’ve been taking the Microlut mini pill every day at 7pm for the past 6 days and today will be my 7th day taking it. I also started taking it on the second day of my period. Anyways today I had sex without a condom with my boyfriend and he sort of came in me but also pulled out like 1 second after he finished. I’m just wondering if it has taken affect already because when I read the information paper that my doctor gave me it said 2-7 days before it takes affect, the leaflet in my birth control box said fuck all about when it takes affect and my friend who also takes the mini pill said that if I take it on my period it takes affect immediately but my other friend said I need to wait 3 months??? I’m really confused and a bit worried so please help me!
