How do I get over the anxiety of thinking always thinking I'm going to get pregnant after I have sex? I'm not on the pill but he wears a condom every time. I'm twenty and I know it sounds silly but there's always that chance. I just want to know how I can get over this and actually enjoy it all. (link)

It sounds like you are not confident in just using condoms. That is a reasonable concern. Condoms are not 100% effective. Only abstinence and surgery (like a hysterectomy) are 100% effective. However, combining the pill with condoms provides more protection. I recommend you consider this option. It may ease your mind to know that you are doubly protected. If the pill does not appeal to you, there are other options. Perhaps talk to your doctor about what you can do. In the meantime, talk to your boyfriend about your concern. Have a serious talk about what you would want to do if you do get pregnant. Having a plan you both agree on will also ease your mind.
