I have decided to go on the Nexplanon contraceptive implant, but just had a few questions to ask. See the main thing that has put me off sex is the worry of getting pregnant even with the use of the condom and being very careful during foreplay. I am still a virgin but even when me and my boyfriend are just messing around with foreplay I am very concious about how close his cum gets to me! We are at the stage where we both feel ready to have sex but I said I don't feel comfortable just using condoms, and that I was considering the pill or the implant, there's something about the pill that I just don't trust as it's quite specific about having to take it at the exact same time every day and that there is always going to be a day when you miss it regardless of how organised you are, I also said I'd want to use condoms as well as the pill but then thought what's the point in getting contraception if I'm going to use a condom anyway. So I thought I'd settle with the implant as it says it's over 99% effective and I know a few people who have had it and what not and don't have to worry about contraception for 3 years. My question is that if you're on the implant or have had the implant, did you still use condoms to prevent pregnancy? Or just relied purely on the implant? (I know condoms are to prevent STI's also but me and my boyfriend are both virgins so no worry about that!)
This is a legitimate question, I do know a lot about contraception and am very careful when it comes to sexual activity with my boyfriend, it's just something I am curious about and if anyone else has the same worries? Because we obviously want to try sex without a condom if I am on another form of contraception, so yeah, thanks for reading!
