Go take a morning after pill then tell me how 'good' you fucking feel.
lol Like cerry or whomever said, you shouldn't have to use it more than once or twice in your lifetime.
I wouldn't want to use latex in fear of the morning-after pill making me sick. And like whoever the other person was said - the side-effects vary person to person, so it mightn't be bad for me.
In any case, I'm willing to take the risk.
That being said the normal pill is 99.9% effective.

EDIT: compared to condoms being only 95% effective.

Look, some people are saying it's about health, others about safety and myself about costs.

REDUCING THE RISK OF PREGNANCY
Oral Contraceptive Pill: 99.9%
Condoms: 95%
Morning-After Pill: ??

I'm not going into other contraceptives, but they're generally all 99.9% (minus condoms, of course)

HEALTH WISE (best to worst)
Condoms
OCP
MAP

COST WISE
Condoms
OCP (per 12 months... $60?)
MAP (one-off use... $30?)

To me, condoms and the pill aren't used for the same purpose.
One safeguards against pregnancy (pill), the other STIs (condoms).
If you want to protect yourself/your partner against both, then use both.

But it's no use saying that you wouldn't use the MAP because of health reasons if you're using both condoms and the OCP for double protection; because you're still pumping your body with hormones anyway so that argument is void.
Besides, if you were already on the OCP you wouldn't have to worry about the MAP.

Condoms are an accessory (when it comes to pregnancy).

Let's do some math.
Say you have sex 3 times a week and condoms are 50c each. That's $1.50 per week, for 52 weeks = $78.00
$78 + $60 (for pill) = $138 annually
Compared to $78 + $30 (one-off MAP) = $108

Both pills reduce your chance of pregnancy.
One is more cost-effective but not as 'healthy'.

Are you trying to prove a point? Because I attempted to.

Just use the skeeting method, I used it last week it was very effective, it's way better than all those things, and it's safer. To see information refer to the skeeting sex forum.

This sounded like a government ad.
I LOLed.

Pre-cum has sperm in it. And voila, my friend had a baby. Bless him.

I don't believe this should be even taken, its disgusting.

the 'Pill' is much different, but something that is a lot stronger than that. Even the 'Pill' is bad for you, that means they are taking something that is so much worse.

How about just get knocked up and claim the baby bonus? Cost = $4133 - labour.





Also I was under the impression that both pills could cause significant damage to your body. It's a huge shame that natural selection doesn't work here; the smart ones won't have kids and the idiots will breed like rabbits.

Yes, they'll both cause damage.
But if your condom breaks/slips off, you have no choice.
If you want double protection, you have no choice.

And anything is cheaper than having a baby, duh.

You're so brilliant.

Today I learnt how to say "willy" (as in peeny) in colloquial Italian.
PISELLINI
Pisello means "pea" and a tiny willy is called a "pisellini" :)
I love my teacher lol

Pill only has 92% effectiveness with "Regular" use. If you use it perfectly (most women don't) then it's 99.7%

If you really really really don't want a baby, just use both.
Just don't it right the first time ffs. Take it properly and you don't have to use both.
