A member asked:
How effective can i continue to use condom with my pwrtner as a birth control?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Couples who use condoms as their main contraception have about 90% reduction in frequency of pregnancy -- compared with 99-100% for hormonal contraception or IUD. With careful use, it should be fine for a few months -- but in the long run, there's a good chance you will conceive.
