I Have a Question?
Posted: 03-31-04 02:34am

I"m on birth-control and I have been taken it everyday..But everytime I have sex with a condom it hurts me now and my fiance wants to just throw them away and foget about using one...I have never had sex without a condom and was wondering if I should i'm on the pill so I would be protected that way but should I just trust the pill or find another condom that maybe don't hurt???? What do you think? Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Well how long have you been on the pill for? Maybe try switchin the kind of condom you use. Like a thinner brand or a different kind-period. You should try to be extra safe since you have always used them. Sometimes the pill isnt always efficient and the condom is a good backup. Look into changing the condoms before you toss them out. Good luck!

Dear dallas, first of all welcome to the boards, secondly... I too am on birth control and my boyfriend and I dont use condoms. You can do it but even though I am doing it, it doesnt make it right. I dont know what to tell you, you can do whatever you think is best. I know that I am not making any sense. But, there are girls, one on this site I think, that got pregnant on the pill....Is it worth it?? They do make bigger condoms!!

As long as you have been taking the pills for more than 2 weeks correctly you will be protected. Unless your worried about stds you should be fine! Smile

I started taking them the first of march i'm on my 2nd pack. They told me my first was'nt gonna be effective but she said after that it was...And in her exact words the spermys could float around in there for days and nothing would happen but that kinda confuses me too...When do you start releasing eggs?? And if your releasing eggs can't you still get pregnant?? I'm probley asking dumb questions sorry.....But thanks for your help
