Can Unprotected Sex Lead To Pregnancy Despite Taking Birth Control Pills?

Hello, I wasn t sure who to ask this to but... I ve been taking tetralysal 300 for a month, also I ve been taking the pill for about two months now. I ve had sex without condom for the past 3 weeks, although my boyfriend never did finish inside of me. Is there a possibility for pregnancy?

Hi

If you have been taking pills in the perfect manner there is no reason to worry. The failure rate with pills is less than 1% in one year.
Condom protects against sexually transmitted disease. Otherwise it is not required as contraception when you are already on pills.
The probability of you getting pregnant is remote as mentioned above ( failure rate with pills). So don't worry.
I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.
