I just went to the doctor yesterday and she was talking to me about BC and she said that in the last 6 months 4 of her patients have gotten pregnant while using a condom. That is a lot considering that condoms should be very effective. What can happen is that the male's penis starts to go to sleep inside of you and sperm leaks out or while he is pulling out the condom stays inside of you because he did not hold on to it.

laRubiaBonita Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 condoms are only 80% effective! Link to post Share on other sites
Naive Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 http://www.4woman.gov/faq/birthcont.htm#2 Right here it says the percentage on how effective condoms are. Link to post Share on other sites
Iluvsiamese Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 yes, it's possible for a number of reasons. read all the information carefully. many of the percentages that are given are the best study results (read "lab") and also have combinded the use of a spermicide along with the condom. many people have gotten burned because of assumptions.

Mary3 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 The best way is to have him remove it right after he climaxes ( then clean up ) and then he can come back and cuddle with you.....But even then , condoms do have failure rates... Link to post Share on other sites
