hi guys
was with my boyfriend this weekend and we had sex, im on the pill but we didnt use a condom, could i still get pregnant? should condoms always be used? thats the 1st time ive never used one, cant say i felt the difference with no condom cos some people seem to say the feeling is better..
be nice to hear ur views, i love him fingering me best feeling ever.. im 20 and legal and hes quite alot older, hes a bit shy bout people looking at us but im fine with it, hope he will b more comfortable soon!

If you plan on using the pill as your only birth control it is worth rechecking the instructions just to ensure you are following the instructions re: times to take it this depends on type of pill and brand (sometimes can vary) and be really aware of things like the fact vomiting, Dihorrea (sp?) taking the pill too late and some antibiotics can effect your pills effectiveness for up to 7 days from the last episode. It tends to be when the pill fails that one of these things is a factor.Best use condoms as an extra for a week or so if one of these things has effected you.
As **Summer-Raindrops** mentioned, it is very important for both of you to get checked out in a sexual health clinic to make sure you are both free from STDs. These can be transmitted when no condom is used.
After making sure you are both clear, at the end of the day it is up to you whether you use condoms or not, but the pill does not cover you 100% and therefore there is still a chance you could get pregnant - so using both is more effective;
Also have a look at our article on the combined pill and the progestogen-only pill - both need to be taken according to instructions in order to work as effectively as they can.
