I've been having problems keepin an erection while having sex with my G/F while wearing a condom, so earlier today we tried it without a condom, and it was MUCH MUCH MUCH better. Now I admit it was quite stupid not wearing a condom, and I know the pull out method isn't guarnteed, BUT, she has PCOS, and I was wondering if it was at all possible for her to get pregnant, and if so what would the % be?

I would not let a diagnosis of PCOS prevent me from using protection. Her doctor would be the best one to determine her chances of getting pregnant. If she ovulates, she can get pregnant, though the risks of miscarriage are high. (I hope you would not want to put her through that.)

Not being able to orgasm due to condoms is generally psychological. I discourage you from avoiding protection and would instead urge you to stop masturbating and learn how to ejaculate with condoms. You admit to what you are doing as being stupid, so I would advise you to start doing the wise thing.

Just because she has PCOS doesnt mean she cant get pregnant. Yes PCOS can effect fertility but it isnt so with all women. Also the younger the woman is with PCOS the less chances of it effecting her fertility. Though it has been mentioned she is at a higher risk of miscarriage and really you dont want her going through that emotional roller coaster.

You have to just learn to accept the condoms and learn how to get comfortable with them. A good way to go is have her help put them on to try to help things along.

Yea, as I said we tried it once, and while we both enjoyed it much more then with condoms, after a long talk we both decided that it would be better not to risk anything and just play it safe. Only problem, is 1.) I dont masturbate much at all and 2.) sex with a condom still isnt very enjoyable.

Get her on the pill, then you don't really need a condom so long as there is no risk of any STD's
