Help With Birth Control
Posted: 10-05-07 19:20pm
|
|
|
|
My doctor said that I should be on birth
control. Not only because I'm sexually
active but also because I get extremely
painful periods. I'm just wondering if i
have sex with my boyfriend while i'm on
the birth control does that mean I have to
use condoms also? or can he cum inside of
me without getting me pregnant?
Any help and advice will be greatly
appreciated thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you get on birth control then you are
protected and he doesnt need to use
condoms
however no matter what your still at risk
of getting preg even if you are on BC and
using condoms...

Birth control pills are more effective
than condoms in preventing pregnancy. You
can take birth control pills instead of
using condoms and you can also use both.
He can ejaculate inside you if you are
taking the pills correctly because it
stops your body from ovulating.
They are called birth control because they
allow a woman to control when she will
give birth.

That's why many girls use pills, so they
don't have to use condoms. BUT- if you
want, you can use both as extra
protection. Some girls do if they're
really concerned about pregnancy.

You also should make sure this guy doesn't
have STD's as well if not planning to use
condoms. Birth control pills protect
against pregnancy but not against STD's. I
got infected with HPV the first time I had
sex..

Word of caution, Norma,
Even using birthcontrol, if you're not
using it right down to the hour everyday,
it's possible to get pregnant. And wait a
minimum of 3 months before doing it with
your boyfriend without a condom. Your body
has to get used to the BirthControl.
That's how Alesse works anyway.

3 months? Who told you that? It only takes
1 week to become protected against
pregnancy.

I read it in the alesse booklet when I was
waiting for my doctor.
I think it may have been 3 months before
your body stopped having the side affects.

yes you'd still need to use a condom.
birth control is not always perfect esp.
with the painful periods. I personally
only got pregnant when on birth control.
BC does not protect against STD's and is
not always 100% in preventing pregnancy.
If you're not ready to have a kid then
you're not ready to have sex. Things
happen so just keep that in mind.

More like, if you're not ready to deal
with pregnancy and the three choices
available if that happens, then don't have
sex.

Yes, THIS is correct.
A. If you start pills on the first few
days of your period, you are safe
IMMEDIATELY.
B. If you start pills at any other time,
you need to wait a minimum of 1 week
before having unprotected sex.
C. It can take up to three months for side
effects to go away and for your body to
fully adjust to the pills; HOWEVER you are
still safe during this time!!

You don't have to. Read my above post. One
month is the maximum you'd need to wait
normally.

Listen to Eiri and read your packet if
you're still confused. It's almost ALWAYS
one week before you're protected, not
months.
But of course birth control is only 99% or
so effective, so if that's not enough for
you, you can always use condoms or
something else with it, lots of girls do
that.

I'd worry more about sexually transmitted
diseases than falling pregnant. You can
get it so easily these days adn some
without a cure. I made my parteners go
for tests before I concidered having sex
with them. I didn't want to risk my life.
Call me crazy I don't care!
Be carefull! Be safe!
