Question regarding birth control pill.

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

My wife and I are going on a pilgrimage next month. She visited her gynaecologist for delaying her periods during the pilgrimage. The doctor has prescribed the tablet Novelon to be taken once a day. Apparently, the tablet also doubles up as a birth control pill. My question to you is since my wife is on medication for delaying the periods, is it safe for us to have unprotected sex ? Will that not lead to pregnancy ?
