So I have been on the pill for 5 years. Ortho-Tri for most of the time, switching to OTC-LO about 2 months ago. I am now in a relationship with a man who is likely to be my future husband and we would really like to get rid of the condoms and rely soley on my pills for pregnancy protection. Here's the problem: I am so paranoid that my pills for some reason won't work. I take them everyday at the same time...even setting my alarm on the weekend so I can wake up briefly to take my pill at the normal time. I tend to spot after sex too...anywhere from right after to a couple days later...i've had this checked out and everything seems fine so apparently it is my body's reaction to intercourse. Anyways, the spotting makes me paranoid as well that something is off....
Anyways, I guess what I am asking is: did anyone else go through this when beginning to rely soley on their pill? How did you get over your worries so that you could enjoy being with your partner?
Thanks everyone!
