Pill + vcf =? Used for preventing pregnancy? Posted: 11-06-07 17:35pm
Hello I was just wondering if anyone could
tell how effective the pill and vcf would
be if used together at preventing
pregnancy. My girl friend dose not like
condoms, and i need a little somthing more
to give me peace at mind. Currently shes
on the pill(wich is taken at the same time
give or take 5 minutes ) and
ive just been pulling out....even though
its pretty much pointless she seems to
think its doing somthing
Thank you for your time

She should be protected but pulling out is
just an extra precaution. But no you don't
have to. She is taking the pill correctly
that should be all you need

Using the pill and VCF together should be
VERY effective at preventing pregnancy.
The pill alone, if used perfectly, has
about a 99% effectiveness rate, and using
the film on top of that will just make it
that much more effective.
Nothing is ever 100% of course, but using
two effective contraceptive methods
together (correctly) is probably about the
closest you will get to 100%, barring
abstinence. They do not protect against
STDs, however; condoms would be better for
that. Also, pulling out is really quite
pointless; it achieves nothing.
If she is good and consistent with her
pills and is using the film properly, you
should be well protected indeed!
