White pill- are you protected?

I've read the birth control pill information packet several times, but am still confused - hoping someone can help. I'm a Sunday start date. I usually start my period on Tuesday of the "white" or "inactive" pills and am done by Friday. However, Saturday is still technically a "white" pill. Does that mean if I have sex on Saturday (the white pill day) I'm not protected?

Thanks. I've actually been on bc for years, but have recently become sexually active. I'm on Yasmin and love it!
