hi
not sure if this should be in sex or health but what the hell
was just wondering how the pill is 98-99 % effective when used carfully and then 80-85% effective when used less cerfully. i thaught you were either protected or not. what does being less carefull consist of? forgetting to take it? taking it late? well in either of these cases surely someone n the progesterone only pill would be unprotected?
sorry just somnthing i was wondering about
thanx
