A member asked:

What are the chances of my birth control pills and my partner's vasectomy failing at the same time to result in pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

About 0: The chances of two excellent contraceptive methods failing at the same time are about zero, mathematically rounded off, of course. No worries. It is very, very rare for a guy with a successful vasectomy (got his semen checked some weeks after the surgery) to be able to start a pregnancy.
