I got pregnant on the pill and now am
pregnant and Ive been on the shot. Does
anything else work besides tying the
tubes.

Oh that's terrible. Do you know why that
happened??
IUD's are really effective (as effective
as sterilization), and the non-hormonal
ones work differently than any other kind
of birth control so you might have better
luck with that. I'd ask the doc about it.
Otherwise there's always good old condoms
and other non-hormonal types, if you think
you aren't reacting to the hormones in the
right way.

It's not that you're immune, because your
own body produces these hormones. It's
just that sometimes they don't work on all
women.
Yes, there are many non-hormonal options!
IUDs, diaphragms, condoms, spermicide,
etc.
