Unprotected sex in a relationship
Would you not use one even if the pill (or anything like that) was also not being taken?
I mean the dangers of unprotected sex are normally told of in the terms of one night stands and so on, but what about relationships? Why is less taboo when a baby may still come out in nine months time?
After about 3 months, me and my ex stopped using condoms but it was another month or so before she went on the pill. Looking back, it was a stupid thing to do, but what do others think?
Would you use no protection if you were with someone you loved? Do you have to because the pill messes up your or your partner's bodies (depending which of you is the female, obviously) and he (or you) is allergic to condoms? What are your views of unprotected sex in a relationship?

yeah just use it. better to be safe than sorry
Me and my bf have unprotected sex (we've both been checked for STI's etc). I don't want to go on the pill (medical reasons) and condoms just don't work with him (he loses his erection-with any type), though he knows i'm not really all that comfortable about it. He stops way before he ejaculates (i know it's still risky - hence why i'm uncomfortable about it) but 10 months down the line and it's all been fine.

There are other methods of contraception other than the pill and condoms, like the injection or implant - could you not use one of those? If you're uncomfortable with it then you really should be using something, because if you became pregnant (which is possible even if he doesn't ejaculate) then you wil be in a far worse situation than you are now.
I have looked into the injection, but can you only get it from your GP? Just that my doctors you can only drive to, i can't drive, so would have to go with one of my parents, and with them as strict catholics don't think they would be too impressed!

There's other methods of contraception like NuvaRing now. No pills taking. What is your medical reason? If you go to the doctor and tell them you want to use contraception, but have such and such a condition, they will do their best to find something which will work for you!
No, you could get it from a family planning clinic if you have one near you? Or alternatively, you may have a friend of yours who is on it (or even the pill) so if she goes to the FPC or GP to get hers you could go with her?!

Me and my fiancé don't use condoms or the pill, some think it's stupid and that I will become pregnant, but after nearly two years of doing this all is fine, we don't have sex when i'm ovulating though, that's how it works.
Perhaps one of us is infertile
Either way, I needn't use a condom, they're awful and I hate the idea of putting chemicals and extra hormones into my body.lovelee-jublee
Oh thanks! I'd have to travel to the nearest city, but will be worth it!! Ta for info/help!

I used to get it from a family planning clinic. Try looking on the Brook Advisory Service to see if there's one near you. Some large GP practices run a weekly clinic, as do hospitals. Contraception is so easy to get now.
If you don't want to travel every three months you could get the implant - one visit will stop you getting pregnant for three years.
Imagine how many times you'll have to get your parents to drive to the doctors if you get pregnant! My family are catholic too but they understand that it's better to be on contraception than to have a grandchild that I can't yet afford to look after to the quality it would deserve.

Actually, no, there is a 2nd excuse... You are an idiot.
Women have been 'putting extra hormones' into their body for 50 years. MILLIONS of women do it and MOST of them are fine. Where does your completely irrational fear come from?
Sorry
Go to an FPC and discuss OTHER methods of contraception! There are different ones than condoms and pill!

That's ok! Before you go though, ring up to check if you need an appointment... most are just walk-in, but others (like mine
) now require appointments. Be prepared to be in there for a while, because they'll have to take personal notes and family histories and things just to see what one will be right for you, and they'll discuss and explain all the options to you. So if you have any questions or problems they'll be there to help you!!Talya

I'm not catholic or stupid, it has worked. The OTHER methods involve hormones or inserting things into your body, not liking that much.
Since it has worked, you cannot call me an idiot. If one day it fails i'll let you know and you can say so then

Perhaps you are infertile, but I wouldn't want to wish that on you. Probably worth going to the doctor if you aren't pregnant after a couple of years though.
You still haven't said WHY you don't want to use hormones or 'insert things' (Which I imagine you are actually doing quite regularly)
The withdrawal method
This involves withdrawing the penis before ejaculation. It is not a reliable method and cannot be considered as contraception because some sperm can leak out of the penis before ejaculation.

Irrational fear? It's not a fear and 50 years isn't long enough to see the long term effects. I'd rather not use them, I eat all organic too. I'd rather be as healthy as possible naturally, and i can tell you - i've never broken a bone, never had fillings, never had an illness worse than a cold, never been overweight, never had bad skin etc etc - since i done better than most people so far, i'll continue this lifestyle

I don't use the withdrawal method. Many catholics use the rhythmn method prefectly well, why should i get pregnant? Perhaps my cycle is perfectly tuned and by not having sex whilst ovulating i'm being 100% safe.
