Very low: While nothing is 100% effective, taking your oral contraceptive pills very consistently means that your chance of accidental pregnancy is less than 1%.

Relatively low risk: The risk of pregnancy while you are taking oral contraceptive pills is usually reported to vary between 4 to 6% even when pills are taken "religiously at the same time every day". If you want to use the most effective method which protects you 99% of the time, ask a knowledgeable and caring Gyn for a LARC, Long-Acting-Reversible-Contraceptive like a subdermal implant or an intrauterine device(IUD)
