Answer 1

I am a nurse at a local health department. Here we offer O'Tricyclene Lo, Aleese, and Lo-Ovral. With perfect use these pills offer 99% protection from pregnancy and 97% with good use. We also have the mini-pill (Micro-Nor) which is a progesterone only pill. It is estrogen free like the Depo Provera injection. It is a good method if you are a good pill taker. You can't miss any pills and must take it at the same time each day. This is very important. With perfect use this method is 97% effective. Hope this helps.

There are so many OC pills out there (over 40 brands currently on the market) that it is best to ask your doctor. For the most part choosing a pill is a matter of trial and error. What works for one body type may not work for another.

I've included some website that can help you make a better choice.

Answer 3

With any hormonal method of birth control, there is about a 1% chance you will get pregnant LONG ENOUGH FOR YOU TO BE AWARE OF IT. Hormonal methods of birth control include BC pill, Depo shot, Nuva Ring, The Patch, Norplant, hormonal IUD and they work on three levels;

1st line of defense is prevention of ovulation, in which case the egg is never fertilized and you go on. However, especially with today's low dosages of hormones, there is quite a big chance of "breakthrough" which is the term for when you ovulate anyway.

2nd line of defense is prevention of that fertilized egg from implanting in the lining of the uterus, causing the new life to die and be flushed away with your period. You would not be aware of this. For those who are firmly pro-life and believe that life begins at conception, this is a problem.

3rd line of defense is that the birth control hormones cause the implanted egg to die and detach from the lining of the uterus. This usually happens during those times when you're "late" but you have your period anyway. Usually it is a bit heavier than normal, and may have more bits and pieces than usual, which is the uterine lining and the dead baby, however small. This is also considered an abortion by those who are firmly pro-life and who believe that life begins at conception.

So, your chances of "getting pregnant" are actually higher than 1%, depending on how often your ovulation breaks through and whether there is sperm present when that breakthrough happens. It is also important that you realize that you are taking that risk by engaging in sexual behavior knowing that you still have a chance, however small, of becoming pregnant. Please be prepared to deal with the product of that chance, a baby, by taking responsibility and allowing that child to be born, even if you decide not to keep him or her. Please choose adoption. Please choose life. If you are not prepared to do that, then please do not have sex.
