My girlfriend just went on the pill after we have had sex about ten times over the course of a month or so. We used condoms properly every time before now. Her gyno told her to take the pill the sunday after her period, and then wait a week to have sex.

1. Should we wait longer before not using condoms?

2. Should we still use condoms? what do you all do?

3. Statistically, the pill is 99% accurate, does that mean that if we have sex 100 times without a condom, we will get a pregnancy?

4. After a week she discovered that insurance would not cover her brand of pill. What needs to be done to switch brands? If insurance does cover it, she might switch to the patch, any reccomendations or comments?


We are both trying to do things on the side of safety, at this point in our lives, a pregnancy is not really an option. Thanks for the honest answers!
