BC Helps - Birth Control Message Board

brilliantIdiot2 · 02-22-2005, 04:17 PM

Hi, thanks for helping me with all these problems guys. Okay, Im thinking about getting on birth control, b/c. I dont like condoms & neither does my boyfriend of a yr. We've been sexually active for a loong time also. I dont know why, i just like it better without condoms, but thats really not safe, & i really dont want a kid yet. So I read about a few side-effects, they dont sound too bad, but Im just wondering if it has sex-effects, If im birth control can he still (banned word) """see-you-M"" Inside of me? or does he have to pull out? Or what exactly does Birth control do?? Do we have to use anything else if im on BC?? Please help me out guys, Thanks

Yes, he can ejaculate inside you. If taken every day at about the same time, pills are 99% effective. If memory serves me correctly, I believe you don't get pregnant on the pill is because it prevents you from ovulating...someone correct me if I'm wrong...but anyway, they work very well.

It is theoretically safe for him to ejaculate inside you, however, condoms definately decrease chances of pregnancy. Remember, birth control isn't 99% effective. But many women use birth control alone.

As far as sex side effects, the pill can lower your libido.

Hormonal birth control can also cause pain during intercourse, but it's fairly rare. Plus, if it happens, you have so many pills to choose from that you're bound to find out that works fine.
