The chances could be anywhere from very high to very low. It depends on alot of things.
- How recently had you been taking birth control. Sometimes birth control can take up to 6 months to stop having enough effect to help prevent a pregnancy. Sometimes all it needs is that little extra nudge to NOT end up pregnant.
- When in your cycle you're having sex. This is what causes most of the variance. The average woman ovulates about two weeks after the end of her period, so pick a day two or three days before the two week mark, and make it a point to sleep together every day until your next period.
Sidenote, if you aren't already start keeping track of your periods, so you know when you hit the 30 day mark. If you miss your period by 7 days, take a pregnancy test. If you are, you've probably had enough time that it will come up positive.
- His sperm count. It sounds ridiculous, but friends of mine have been offered a few tips for the guys to make sure they're at max...potency.
Boxers or going commando, smoking less or quitting for a while, and making sure he's eating three meals a day and getting HIS nutrition makes sure he's doing all he can on his side.
(The boxers, by the way, are because there's actually an ideal temperature for sperm, and tighty whiteys keep him a bit closer to his body, raising the temperature)
