A member asked:
Is sex just as safe with just the pill and no condom?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Technically, no: Safe sex implies protection against sexually transmitted disease and infections. The birth control pill provides protection against unwanted pregnancy but virtually no protection from std. Safe sex usually indicates that a barrier protection (i.e. Condom) is in place to attempt to prevent transfer of body fluids from one partner to another.
