Default Deferred medical

Let's say one applies for a medical at say, the beginning of the month, and also currently holds a valid medical. The AME then for some reason decides to defer the medical decision to the FAA (a deferral, not a denial). Is the medical currently held still valid until the end of the month, or does the deferral also automatically invalidate the currently held medical as well? I was thinking about this because if the current medical would still be valid, then it would be advantageous to get your medicals at the beginning of the month because if something came up, it would buy more time before you had to stop flying.....
