I am about to start taking birth control pills. I realllly dont want to have a baby right now but i do want to exerience the feeling of having sex without a condom. I know that they always say that the pill is about 97% effective, but i want to hear form other people about their experiences with taking the pill. Do you think i should feel pretty safe about having sex with no condom and the pills, or do you think that there is possibilities of getting pregnant? Have any of you guys gotton pregnant when you were on the pill, and please tell me when i can expect when i start taking the pill, like times the periods will come and anything else. thanks alot

I never did. What pills are you taking and do you take them consistantly at the same time every day? This is especially important on the minipill.

One thing that can't be underestimated--condoms are your only means of protetion against sexually transmitted diseases, so if you both haven't been tested to make sure you're disease-free, even with the pill you should still be using condoms.
