Cyclen questions

I'm thinking about stopping using condoms and just relying on my pill for protection against pregnancy. How safe is this? I take my pill (Cyclen), usually at the same time everyday (around 7-730 am. If I am late, it's only usually about 2 hours). I haven't missed a pill day in 5 years. The only other prescription medication I take is Prevacid. I have a clean bill of health and so does my bf (STD-wise). Any thoughts, ideas, or helpful information would be great!

Thanks

Candace

Bump. I think my post got pushed back on the second page.

Thanks for the reply Jill! :) I will look at the FAQ's about taking the pill correctly. I've been taking the pill for 5 years, almost 6 now, and still have alot of questions! I think some reassurance helps too...so thank you.
