Birth Control is 99.9% effective when taken properly, so you do not need a condom to protect yourself from pregnancy. However, if you are not in a monogamous relationship; meaning, if you have more than one intimate partner, you should use condoms to protect yourself from STI/STD's.

If you have been on birth control for nine days and you thought you were pregnant Would you still be pregnant?

Yes, you still may be pregnant. No birth control method is 100% percent effective, including the pill, and even the most effective rarely reach their full effectiveness unless taken for over 1 month. Taking other medications besides the pill can sometimes, though rarely, render the pill ineffective, which is why it's important to inform your prescribing doctor of any and all medications that you take normally. It's imperative to practice safe sexual practices by using more than one method of birth control, i.e. taking a birth control pill and using a condom (as the pill does not protect against diseases, a condom is a good idea anyway). If you are on the pill and are late with your period, skipping it entirely, or bleeding a lot (some spotting is generally normal, but if the amount of blood is concerning you, then it's an issue) while you are taking it, you should consult with a medical professional immediately. Remember, NO method of birth control is 100% effective. It is possible to be on a birth control pill and use a condom, and still get pregnant; but it is much more likely to happen if you are not practicing safe sex.

Yes - you can still get pregnant while taking birth control pills; especially if you are taking any other medications. It is important that your boyfriend wear a condom to protect from sexually transmitted diseases. Remember that when you have sex, you can catch any STD's that all of his parters and all of their partners might have had.
