If you're taking the pill, then you are protected against pregnancy, that's what the pill is for after all. Laughing

While no method is 100% effective, the pill is around 99% effective when taken as intended, even if he ejaculates in you every time.

It wasn't foolish of you. That's why we take the pill.

You would be foolish if you tried to use the pull out method or something. The pill is a proven protection against pregnancy.

if you are taking the pill for more than 2 weeks consistently, then you are protected already against pregnancy. Don't worry though nothing is 100% effective, pills are highly effective type of BC
