writes: Okay, so this will be a few questions concerning birth control pills and its effectiveness. This is for my own purpose only, not for any scientific purposes. The subjects will be those of you who had or taking birth control pills, and have one partner only. If you are one, please answer all 4 questions. Thank you:] 1. Do you take it at exactly the same time everyday? If you missed the exact time, how many times do you think in a month that you stretch the time? (eg. must've take it at 9, but sometime 10 or 9:30) 2. Have you been pregnant even when taken the pills? 3. Does your partner wear condom when you have sex? 4. Does your partner ejaculate inside you?

reader, anonymous, writes (11 November 2012): 1. Yes, same time everyday. It's most effective that way because then you always have it in your system. If I stretch, I do no more than half an hour.
2. Nope.
3. My first partner never wore a condom and we had sex more than once a week, up to 5 times a week for over a year. My second partner used to not wear a condom, but does now because he's paranoid. :P
4. My first one did every time. My second one did as well.

1 no I never took it the same time but I took it every day
2 no
3 no because I was in a committed relationship
4 yes, that's kinda the point

I always took my pill around the same time in evening between 6-8 pm. I was sick once on the pill so (basically i missed one coz i threw it up) we didnt use back up contraception and im now 6 months pregnant! Hope that answers everything. So the end result is the pill is only as effective as it says on the packet if its taken correctly!

For you, it depends on the pill. If you are on the combination pill, an hour or two here or there probably won't hurt. If you are on the progesterone only "mini pill" you must take it at the same time. Set an alarm on your phone to remember to take it. If you are nervous about remembering to take it, you may want to consider nuvaring. Once you have been on it for awhile it might also be worth looking into implanon or the depo shot. I was on nuvaring for a few months and I really liked it. I don't respond well to hormones in general, but that one had the least side effects of the 7 or 8 that I tried.
2. Have you been pregnant even when taken the pills?
No. It takes some getting used to at first to separate any side effects from the pill from pregnancy symptoms. Your breasts may swell, you may have spotting (which some people confuse with implantation bleeding), you may get weird food cravings, nausea, headaches, you may feel a bit pregnant while on it.
3. Does your partner wear condom when you have sex?
No, but only when I'm with my long term STD tested partner. If I was on the pill and had a new partner he would wear a condom.
4. Does your partner ejaculate inside you?
Yes, if we don't have to rush to be somewhere soon after (it's a lot messier for the woman that way).

1. I took mine around the same time usually a hour either way
2. My partner didn't wear a condom
3. Yes he did this is the reason I was on the pill
Also I did get pregnant no contraceptive is 100% and you need to trust your partner 100% y

I used to take birth control pills and was on them for many years, stopped a few months ago to try for pregnancy.
1. I attempted to take them at the same time every night but sometimes it was off by a few hours. Never made a difference. It even says on the package if you forget your pill take them as soon as possible, as long as it hasn't had a few days elapse it is not a problem.
2. No I never fell pregnant while on the pill in the course of probably 7 years using them.
3. No my partner never wore a condom while on the pill.
4. Yes my partner ejaculated inside of me. That was one of the reasons we were on the pill, to not have to use a condom and be able to ejaculate inside without worries.

well I took them a long time ago and I've had way more than one partner in my life but I never got pregnant when I did not want to....so here goes
no i never managed to remember to take them at the same time but i did manage to take them every day
I have never gotten pregnant on the pill but I know a woman who got pregnant 4 times while on BCP and her husband finally had a vasectomy as they could not find any other thing that worked for them.
wearing a condom has NOTHING to do with pregnancy when on the pill... it's a matter of health... no blood work no condom... possibility of cheating no sex without a condom.
FWIW when I was your age STDs were not an issue so condoms were not as common as most of us were on BCP
and my partners have ALWAYS ejaculated inside of me. I prefer it.
