A female reader, LauraE United Kingdom +, writes (23 July 2007):

You don’t mention the type of pill. If you are on the combined pill, then it is very effective as long as you stick to the rules. 98 – 99% effective is the commonly quoted figure. That’s about as near to completely certain as you could get. If you are still worried, then use condoms as well. I took the pill for 16 years, and had absolutely no pregnancy scares or side effects. I think the mini pill is less effective, but have never taken it, so don’t feel able to comment on it.
