Contraception, Plain and Simple

I am thinking about having sex with my boyfriend of 14months. we are
both 17. he has never pressered me into doing it he is waiting untill (sic)
i am ready and i feel like i am. i am just worried about getting pregnant.
if he wears a condom and i am not ovulating do i still have
a good chance of getting pregnant

thank you

Hey there,

If you use a condom, and a spermicidal lubricant, you should have
very little to worry about. Nothing is 100% full proof, but the
chances of you getting pregnant are slim if you take these
precautions. One word of advice; don't worry about when you're
ovulating, it never works. Just use a condom, and a spermicide, and
maybe go on the pill, if you just want something extra.

Hope this helps, and congratulations on waiting and making the
decision to have sex when you were *ready* to do so. I hope it's
great.

Take care,

Pandora
