Silly to use condoms when on the pill

Question - (25 February 2009) 10 Answers - (Newest, 25 February 2009)
A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Is it silly to make your partner wear a condom or pull out while on the pill? My bf and I are each others first, so I'm not worried about std's but I heard the pill is only something like 92% safe. That scares me, so I make him put on a condom or he can pull out and finish on my stomach. He thinks I'm crazy because I won't let him cum inside me. Am I wrong?

I would advise you to use both as the pill is not 100% effective and I heard that 1 brand of pill, Yasminellle has such a low dose that it is easy to get preganant even while taking it properly so I would say use both. ''no glove, no love!''

Personally I do not think it is stupid to wear a condom whilst your partner is on the pill... the pill is not 100% effective against unwanted pregnancies plus the pill cannot stop you getting any sexual diseases from your partner, if they were to have one.

Some condoms can now feel like you do not have one on - like Polyurethane ones, and some condoms can be fun - like select flavour ones by Durex.

Sex is meant to be safe, and it is meant to be fun.

Enjoy it!

jessica04 agony auntIf you don't like the feeling of a condom, you can also use a spermicidal foam or gel. Don't apply it before he performs oral on you (if he does), but do it before penetration.

Nothing short of a hysterectomy or abstinence will be 100% safe. But explore some options. Meanwhile, the best thing you can do if you are having sex without a condom is to stay regular on your pill. If you miss a day, use a condom for the next week! Be safe!

Well some people will tell you that you should wear a condom every time, all the time. I was in a long term relationship and went on the pill and never used condoms, and he came inside me every time. I didnt get pregnant.

It's a risk too, yes, but not a big one. If you take the pill perfectly (don't skip, take it the same time every day etc.) then it's more like 98% effective.

Since you're young however, and if you won't be having sex for like, the next 2 years consistently with a committed partner etc., it would probably be better to use a condom.

Sex is ALWAYS a risk. Just use your head about how much risk you are willing to take on, that's all.

Good luck!

If you know you absolutely do not want to get pregnant, you should use a condom or make him pull out. I know a lot of girls that have gotten pregnant while they were on the pill, because they thought that it was 100% efficient. If your boyfriend can't respect that, lose him.

If it worries you, use both. If you're fine with the chances, then use either one. This is neither a right or wrong mentality.
