A member asked:

Had sex, he was only inside for a few minutes before pulling out. i'm on birth control, and i decided to take a whole pack after out of fear.pregnant?

Pills: Don't do that. It will only make you sick. If you are taking the birth control pills, not missing any, they are 98% effective. Taking many pills all at once is not a good idea.
