I just have a question for you; I hope you
dont mind...
When you got pregnant on bcp's.... Was it
because of a mistake on your part? Or
were you using it exactly the way it
should be used and you just so happened to
be that 1% that bc fails on....

I now cannot use hormonal bc pills,
because they make my depression/mood
disorder worse, even though I am on
medication.
I took bc pills for 2 years though, before
we realised that the hormones were causing
me too many problems.
Yes, I took them correctly.
I started bc at 17, and then got pregnant
at 18 the first time.
I also got pregannt on an iud, which is
just as effective as tubal
sterilization.
Nothing is 100%, that is why each woman
should have a back-up plan.

Oh my... Welll thank you for sharing that
with me...
It helps paint a clear picture in my head,
however now i'm very worried
what would you recommend for me... I use
my bcp's very correctly everday, and my
boyfriend & I do not use condoms...
Should we be using something like
spermicide?
If so... I don't even know where to find
spermicide....
Thanks so much again <3

Spermicide can be bought at a walmart.
I would reccomend that you decide 'what
if'.
You and your b/f discuss what you want if
an accident happens, and you were to
become pregnant.
