Need Opinions/ Reassurance Posted: 02-09-06 01:17am
My girlfriend start taking birth control a
month ago. On the night she was to take
her last bc pill we had unprotected sex
but only momentairly. I didnt ejaculate
or anything but im sure some of the other
fluid came out, all in all it was about 5
seconds tops. Afterwards she took her
pill as she had been everyday before.
Less than 48 hours later she got her
period. Im wondering what the chances are
that she could have become pregnant from
our "action" im not sure if bc takes a
month to begin working, or if it starts
right away, and seeing as how she took the
last pill that night im also wondering if
that could work as a disadvantage since
there would be no other form of
contreceptive for about the next 36 hours
til she got her period. Any comments
would be very helpful! Thanks for
reading!

The chances of her becoming pregnant are
very slim. When you first start the pill,
it takes about 2 weeks for it to start
working...If she was on her last hormonal
pill of the pack, it should already be in
her system and working. Plus, she had her
period...So really no worries. Also, mind
you, even if you have unprotected sex for
only a few seconds or so, she can still
get pregnant. Pre-cum is the most potent
in sperm compared to regular cum.
Remember, the pill is not 100% effective.
Hope this helped!

Ha, I dont know about figures...But I do
know her chances of pregnancy are very
slim. If you are really worried, you
should have her buy a home pregnancy test.
Hope this helped. :)

The statistics are 5 in 100 for oral
contraceptives. Which means for every
100 women taking them 5 will become
pregnant while using them.

The statistics I have heard are for every
100 women taking the pill correctly every
day, only one will get pregnant.

Ok if you want figures, i'll give you
figures
here it goes...
If your gf is taking the pill on the same
time everyday and haven't missed one her
chances of being pregnant is 1 out of 100
if your gf the pill on different times or
what we call (typical use) it's 5-8 out of
100 chance
but here are the things that you should
take into consideration...Since she
already had her period...It means she's
not really that fertile that time...And
since she almost had took the pill for a
month maybe she didn't even ovulate...So
the chances would be slimmer estimated by
about 1 out of 200 when it comes to
(perfect use) and approximately 5-8 out of
200 when it comes to (typical use) I hope
I did helped...
Well if you are still nervous she can take
the pregnancy test (in planned parenthood)
they can detect pregnancy earlier than
home pregnancy test does...
