first off, what's vcf?

I think you are talking about vaginal contraceptive film? Here is a website about it:

well according to that site anywehre from 6-26% of women using it will become pregnant. That's about 80% effectiveness, and a little worse and a little better in some cases. No where near 90%, it's 84% at it's best.

Yes, by vcf I meant vaginal contraceptive film.

Did you follow all of the instructions? If memory serves, you have to insert it about 30 minutes to an hour before you have sex for it to be completely effective.

Are you thinking of going on a more reliable form of birth control soon?

And, in the future, if you are worried about the possibility of pregnancy, go and get emergency contraception.

Also, the "pull out" method is a horrible way to try to prevent pregnancy. Before a man ejaculates, he secretes a small amount of pre-ejaculate. This liquid clears his urethra of acid that can build up from urination. This liquid is usually clear and doesn't look like semen but looks can be deceiving. Pre-ejaculate can have some sperm in it and you can get pregnant from it.

Do all condoms irritate you, or is it just latex? They do make lambskin condoms if you are allergic to latex. This would give you extra protection against pregnancy because it works as a barrier but it wouldn't give you any protection against sti/std's.

You can also buy the sponges from any store and use them with vcf. This would be doubling your methods and would be a bit safer.

You can also talk to you doctor about the possibility of a diaphram or cervical cap.

Yes, I followed all the instructions exactly, and I know that the pull out method isn't the best method of birth control. However, we were comfortable with the risk with the plan being to pull out before he ejaculated. But it didn't work out that way.

We've tried several different kinds of condoms and they all iritate me. I don't think it is an allergy so much as just irritation from the friction they cause, regardless of whether additional lube is used. I have an appointment to get a prescription for the pill in about two weeks, as long as i'm not already pregnant.
