Small: No birth control method is 100 %, while some are better than other. Oral pills need to be taken regularly everyday.While pregnancy stops usual menstrual bleeding, pink vaginal discharge is common in early pregnancy. It is easy to do urine pregnancy test and if there is any doubt, a confirmatory blood test is easily be done.

Very Low: Birth control pills have a failure (pregnancy) rate of 3-5% per year. However, if a women has a period that is normal in timing, flow and duration sometime after intercourse, it is extremely unlikely that she is pregnant. Best wishes!
