A member asked:

Had sex with a condom and also take birth control pills everyday for 5 years how likely is it be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Very unlikely: Any BC practice has a failure risk but your combination drops your combined risk to about 1%/yr or less. If you forget the pill for several days you increase your risk some.
