okay well this is the deal.
im ready to have sex i know i am. im with a boy right now and we've decided that were going to do it. im just really nervous cuz im not on birth control and im scared something is like going to happen to the condom, like rip. i told him that i was nervous and asked him that whenever he felt like he was going to bust he would take it out and then put it back it when he stopped ..
is that a god idea and if your not on birth control and you use a condom is it most likely you can get pregnant or is like 1 in every 500 people?
please comment back asap !! thank you !!

The male condom, if used properly, is 98% effective. This means that out of a 100 women who are using the condon correctly, two will get pregnant. The package of condoms should come with very clear instructions - make sure both you and your boyfriend read & understand them.
Having your boyfriend pull out before he comes can lessen the chances of being exposed to a lot of sperm, but even precum holds 80,000 sperm - more than enough to get you pregnant. If your boyfriend decides to pull out, make sure he hangs onto the condom. Also, he should NOT put it back in you, as the condom will be full of semen.
If you feel this uncomfortable about not being on birth control, this anxiety might make sex less enjoyable. Why not contact your local health services for younger people and make an appointment - birth control could be offered free or very cheap, depending on your age and ability to pay money.
Best of luck.
