Is Birth Control REALLY effective? I’m asking as a guy, concerned about knocking up my gf.?
Okay, I met a girl about 2 weeks ago, she had not had sex for a long time and is pretty inexperienced because she is still in highschool. She is 19, I’m 24.
She is on the pill actually, I didn’t know she was the last time we had sex.
I made her show me the type etc, it was “Yasmin” and she took the pill in front of me, and half the pack was empty cuz she had been taking it obviously.
I get paranoid girls will stop taking the pill or pretend to to get knocked up, my dad has warned me about the occasional freaky girl who wants to get knocked up by you and keep you forever or so she thinks.
Anyways, I want to know HOW effective birth control really is.
I came inside of her this morning, she was ontop of me, but I came very hard and it was alot of semen because thats the second time in 5 years I’ve actually had sex.
It was pretty embarassing it was literally dripping out all over the sheets, so I had to change them.
I’m really worried, about getting her pregnant. I wouldn’t abandon her or anything if it happened and I would man up and take responsibility for my child and for her, since I care about her and would want to be together for the child and us.
I just hear ALOT of horror stories about the pill failing. I don’t believe it’s 99.9% effective. I believe it’s more like 99% effective so every 1/100 or 200 you get a girl pregnant maybe?
how effective is it? And why do women still get pregnant while on the pill.
Her mother got pregnant with her at 20 when she was ON THE PILL. So since she is born from her mom, I am concerned her body chemistry is the same and she might be able to get pregnant while on the pill.
She has never had a guy cum in her before, and she really likes it and, I like it alot too, it makes me feel very close to her. It increases the pleasure by 100% and it feels like we got closer for some reason.
It just feels like there is more feeling to the sex when I cum in her thats all. Feels there is more emotion and care and love and stuff.
Maybe some of u know what I mean. I just bond more and more with her when she gives me good sex like that.
I really care about her and I don’t want to get her pregnant.
IS this RISKY?
Is it going to result in a baby if we have sex 2 days a week, about 4-5 times in total for the 2 days?
Thanks everyone I appreciate the help
SORRY ABOUT THE LENGTH I JUST WROTE WAY TOO MUCH!!!
My problem is I trust women too much. I trust they won’t cheat on me and bring home an STD but women and men are equally as slutty, women may even be a bit more slutty than men and more calculated and deliberate in their sexual misadventures.
when I have sex it means something. IT means I love the person. I do not have sex, I have only had sex with her and I only did it because i care about her alot and want to be there for her through everything, in any capacity but I really would like to date her for a few years and marry her after awhile.
Im too traditional I guess. Im dreaming if i think she won’t fuk aroudn on me 
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!
GREAT INFORMATION!!!!!
I feel like I understand this more. I better tell her to take the pill at the same time everyday, cuz she isn’t doing that. And I will find out when she ovulates and invest in some spermicide.
Great help, you ALL DESERVE 10101010 points!
Thanks Everyone, I really APPRECIATE all the answers.
Except for the guy who called me a pig for having consentual sex with my girlfriend who is an ADULT (19 y/o)
I believe she is taking the pill, I don’t think she lies, and I don’t think she wants to get pregnant but u guys are right women do play dirty tricks on men, try to get pregnant to keep the man when they feel they are losing him etc.
She already knows Im not going anywhere for as long as she wants me I am there for her. She doesn’t need to become pregnant, I will love her tomorrow and the next day and so on..
I will research ovulation since I didn’t know about it. Maybe we will wear condom while she is ovulating.
Spermicide is interesting, I wonder where to get some. It would help, because I ejaculate a large volume compared to most men and it woudl be good to havesomething that kills the sperm before they go up inside of her.
I wonder if they taste bad?
anyways THANK YOU ALL!

You are a pig, although you may be somewhat sincere but misguided by liberalism. If you really care, keep your pants zipped up until the time you marry the girl you want to commit to.

If she takes the pill every day at exactly the same time every day, it should be 99% effective.
March 25th, 2011 at 2:34 pm
Hi,
Pl. do not blind trust the girl.
Pl. use condom as safety measure from your side.This will save you also from other problems like STD.
March 25th, 2011 at 3:14 pm
the pill won’t work every time…if you really want to not have a baby, use a condom!!! even i she’s on the pill, use a condom. use a condom. use a condom. use a condom. use a condom.
use a condom.

I think you’re a little confused about the percent of the pill thing.
When they say it’s 99% effective, they mean that for 99% of the girls it will stop them getting pregnant, not every 100 times you have sex you will get somebody pregnant.
Basically either you are part of the 99% and the pill works, in which case you don’t have to worry, or you are the 1%, and the pill might not work.
I am a little skeptical of the pill, my brothers girlfriend got pregnant while she was on it, and so did my sister while she was also on the pill.
However this could just be bad luck.
Next the probably of like 99.99% is right. They can’t just make up random figures. They would have had to have done vigorous testing and statistical investigation to find this.
The next point, if her mum is immune to the pill the is probably at the least a greater chance that she is too.
However i can’t tell you exactly, you would have to get her to talk to her doctor.
I don’t know if you can get tested for that, but it would pay to see if you can.
Um, finally i would say if you are really worried about this then you might just have to use a condom, up to you really.
If that doesn’t tickle your fancy try other forms of contraceptive like spermicide lubricant, etc. These don’t diminish pleasure, so good for you,
Oh yea, i don’t know if you are aware but there is a thing called ovulation.
Basically for about 2-3 days halfway through her cycle, (in between periods), women go through a process called ovulation where a fertile egg is released.
This is the ONLY time when she can get pregnant.
Talk to your girlfriend and try to establish what days she ovulates on, then make sure you use a condom, or just refrain for a few days.
I would suggest you do your own research on ovulation, perhaps talk to a doctor, or just use Wikipedia.

I’m on Yasmin and it’s 99% effective if taken everyday at the same time. I have an alarm set so I know when to take it every morning at the same time. If she’s just taking it at random times and all that then it’s WAY LESS likely to work correctly. Do a favor for both of you so you dont have to worry and either wear a condom or go get clipped (from what I hear you can undo it when your ready to have kids?). The only 100% way to prevent pregnancy is to not have sex. And a question for you, how do neither of you know any of this? I know you may be inexperienced but still, they teach you this in health class and the doctors talk to you about it. Good luck

it’s effective as long as she is taking it EVERY SINGLE DAY what the pill does is trick the woman’s body into thinking it is already pregnant this way she won’t get pregnant…..the hormones keep her from getting pregnant……
but i agree with your father, you never know what woman is gonna do something messed up, this is all about trust…..i know women who “got pregnant by mistake” (yea right)
i know it’s more fun not using a condom but its the only way you can guarantee she won’t get pregnant if she stops takin the pill without you knowing it …
March 25th, 2011 at 5:49 pm
They are pretty effective when taken.
Also, use condoms too and check them after wards to make sure they didn’t break and if you are unlucky and the condom breaks go to your doctor within 12 hours of the accident and ask for a “morning after pill.”
March 25th, 2011 at 6:31 pm
i agree with dr. mojo.
the pill is pretty effective from what i hear WHEN TAKEN CORRECTLY, and you’re probably not going to get any scientists on here who have done studies to prove one way or the other, but you really DO need to use a condom. if she has allergies to spermicide or latex, use the polyurethane ones or those SKYN ones.
you should be worried about disease as well. you can’t be sure she’s actually been taking them just because the packet is half empty….. she may have been taking them before, and stopped when she broke up with her old b/f.
my partner’s ex wife got pregnant even though she was supposedly on the pill, but she intentionally stopped taking them to get knocked up so that he would stay with her….. women do all sorts of scary things!!! be careful and DON’T take her word for it…..

yup birth control is not a 100%, but nothing really is, that’s why they teach us abstinence. psh, like that happens.
extra protection, condom and pill. but if she takes it regularly she should be fine. however, you are right. she could be VERY fertile and if she’s like her mom, then yeah, increased chance. SO, wear a condom just for extra protection. that way, if she doesn’t take the pill, at least you are preventing it even more.
try the really thin condoms. you know there’s a whole bunch of diff ones. while it’ll never be the same as going without, there are thin condoms to increase pleasure.
of course doing it more often will increase the risk, which is why you should wear a condom. um, i don’t know what else to tell you. she should take her pill and that’s pretty much it.

no pill is 100% effective…so yes, its possible to get pregnant while you are on the pill, it is just less likely. This would be by most doctors and well…anyone…would suggest using both the pill AND condoms to protect against both getting pregnant, and STDs. If you are so concerned about getting her pregnant, or that she will try to trick you into getting her pregnant..then CLEARLY you do not know her that well and maybe should be using a condom anyway…
“Is it going to result in a baby if we have sex 2 days a week, about 4-5 times in total for the 2 days?” dude…are you saying you are 24 and have never been told that all it takes is 1 time?! …let alone 10 times in 1 week…so yes..with that your chances of getting her pregnant go up.
for the time being, if you are seriously concerend that your intense ejaculation “knocked up” your girlfriend..then go with her and pay the $40 for “Plan B”…a pill taken within 42 hours of “accidents” that will work in pair with her pill and hopefully no baby will come of it…
Finally…you do not have to risk pregnancy to show her you care…and yes it feels different with a condom..but if you feel you cant handle it with a condom..then thats fine…but you will have to accept the risks involved…
Good luck!

Okay… where to begin!?
To start with, the pill is very effective: I’ve been on it for years and have never fell pregnant on it. Yes, you do get the occasional accident with other girls, but usually it’s because they forgot to drink the pill that one time…
If you think that this girl will fall pregnant just to get you to stay with her – leave her now! If you feel that way about her, you obviously don’t think that she is mature enough…
If you don’t trust the pill completely, try using both condoms AND the pill. Or convince her to go onto a injection rather than the pill. It’s much safer and much more convenient – once every 2 or 3 months.
Lastly the amount of sex you guys have won’t necessarily increase the chances of her getting pregnant. It has to do with if the conditions is right to make a baby.
Also learn to know her cycle. There are times in the month when a girls cannot fall pregnant. Rather *** in her at those times and not in the middle of her cycle when she is most likely to fall pregnant.
This is not the best technique, but it lowers the chances.
Hope this helps!

The birth control pill keeps a woman from ovulating and makes it harder for sperm to get to an egg. If it fails at preventing the sperm from fertilizing the egg, it keeps the embryo from attaching to the uterus, which is necessary for it to grow.
The birth control pill is effective right away when a pack is started within 6 days of menstruating. When it’s started any later, it takes up to a month to be effective.
Birth control pills are 99 percent effective when taken as prescribed. Since a number of women don’t take them correctly, their actual effectiveness is 92 percent.
The birth control pill’s effectiveness is affected by missed pills and interactions with drugs taken for bacterial infections, migraines and seizures.

I got bored reading that a bit lol but from what i did read, yes the pill is 99.9% effective and if your still worried why dont you wear a condom too? I know it wont ‘feel’ as good but you seem super paranoid! And its usual to drip loads after sex, no matter how often you have it.
March 25th, 2011 at 9:55 pm
The Pills WORK!
as long as she takes it every day at the same hour. if she misses, make sure its less than 15 minutes late.
I was on birth control pills, the ortho one, and there were times i missed every single weeek, and my bf still cum inside me, and nothing happened!
that is because, once shes on the pill for about 5 months, the pills are in her system already. her body has acepted the pills.
so since its in her system, she wont get pregnant even if she misses some days.
but trust me, they work, goooood. so there’s no need to worry
pluss, they will give her clearer skin too. it helps with ache

Yeah – you got carried away there –
Here’s the thing – NO birth control is 100%- and you are expecting her to take BC pills without ever making a mistake or missing one – or taking medications that interfere with effectiveness, etc, etc. –
So, if I were you – and I was not ready to make a commitment to become a father or husband or pay child support – then your best bet would be to have your own supply of condoms and use them!
Yes – you can get pregnant on the pill – been there – have a son!
It has nothing to do with heredity – it’s just hormones. And not all pills have the same formula – and some do not work for some women –
It has nothign to do with loving her or wanting to take the realtionship to another level –
BC pills do not prevent STD or HIV – condoms do – (and there are all kinds of fun ones) -
Give it time – and don’t take risk unti you’re sure –
March 25th, 2011 at 11:30 pm
Well you are the cause of the worry.
USE A CONDOM. If you are leary about getting her pregnant, use them.
