Birth Control Question :)
Posted: 01-04-05 23:19pm

Hi, I was wondering how effective birth control is ? The girl i'm with right now is on the pill and uses it correctly, she is on diane35. I recently emailed them regarding it and they replied with a short answer saying almost 100% effective. We are currently having sex 1-3 times a day with many orgasms while inside and not using a condom. So my question, are we safe against pregnancy? Or should I "pull out” or use a condom etc. Thank you very much.

The statistical truth is that pills are 99.9% effective when taken perfectly, with imperfect use (ie. Not taking at the same time every day, mixing with other meds) the 'real' truth is that they are about 95%... Still a pretty damn good stat if you ask me. Since she's not ovulating you can have as much sex as you want, and no amout of sperm *should* get her pregnant... But it is theoretically possible... Even the clinical studies with 99.9% effectiveness show that 1 in 1000 women will get pg through perfect use. So it's possible... But slim
