New pills are so low-dose most women don't experience side effects and some even keep you from breaking out! I think the patch is a good alternative, especially if you're worried you won't remember to take a pill everyday. I would encourage her to speak to her physician. But again, you can't make her take it if she doesn't want to and if you don't want her to get pregnant, the only way to be sure she won't is if you stop having sex. No way would I rely upon just a condom. That's not an option if you love her, however if you're worrying more about sex than enjoying it, there's not a lot of "lovemaking" going on anyway.
