hi all! i wanted to ask, how many of you let your partners finish inside ? i’ve been a perfect user since 2020 and still get extreme paranoia about this lol, i test monthly but haven’t been able to since January and I already swear I’m pregnant. Brand: Sprintec Brand: Sprintec

If you don’t trust your pill then don’t do it? But it’s literally what the pill is for lol. If you’re a perfect user then you will be fine.

I take the mini pill (perfect use) and my ex would finish inside me multiple times a week. I never had a positive test. I was paranoid about it as well.

no point doing it if it gives you so much anxiety. just use condoms

I’ve been on the pill for 6 years and have been having condomless sex for like 4-5 of those years. I never had any issues or scares. My current partner prefers to use condoms but I didn’t use them with previous monogamous partners.

I’ve been letting my bf finish in me for 4 years and have never been scared or had a scare 🤷🏻‍♀️ It’s really unnecessary to test monthly, if it stresses you out that much then don’t have condomless sex.

Just use condoms if you don’t trust your pill. But it might also be worth looking into help for your anxiety if you’re this worried about pregnancy, as that isn’t normal. Sex is supposed to be fun and not put this stress on you.

I’ve been a perfect user since 2021 and still don’t trust the pill enough😅 My bf always uses a condom too, we never tried without it bc I would get super anxious.. 😅 even with 2 contraceptive methods i start to panic if my period is late.. this is what I would call paranoia 😅 but my bf loves me like that so 😄🤷🏽‍♀️

@vanillacake you don’t get a real period on birth control so it doesn’t matter if you bleed or not. Not getting a bleed means nothing

@Kitarah yeah I know but withdrawal bleeding is still a sign of no pregnancy

@Pham200 that’s a bit of a harsh reply don’t you think ?, i understand this app is bombarded w redundant anxiety filled questions, but it was simply a way to see the rest of you navigate this situation :-)

i prefer reddit y’all are too intense lmfaoo

@Frogi101 thanks for the kind and honest reply, i feel the same way! I should have reformatted my question differently because it’s sounding like I have a crippling anxiety but really it’s just that feeling of omg what if lol

@vanillacake No it’s not. Withdrawal bleeding or lack of bleeding does not indicate pregnancy because it is not a real period. The bleed you may get on a break week occurs to the drop in hormones from not taking the pills. Birth control also thins the uterine lining so it’s very normal and common for bleeding to stop altogether. The best way to know that you’re not pregnant is by taking your pills correctly.

@virgoooo14 How is @pham200 being intense? It was just a light hearted/ joking way of saying if you’re not going to trust it then don’t do it. Don’t take it too seriously

^^ the only time i would use a withdrawal bleed as an indicator is if i missed pills and had a heavy bleed because that means a pregnancy wouldn’t be viable

@Kitarah it was super sarcastic lol

@virgoooo14 Not really. She just said that’s what the pill is for because it’s literally called “birth control”. Again, don’t take it too seriously.

@Kitarah okay okay reformatting my answer. it’s unlikely you are pregnant when you have a withdrawal bleeding. Not saying it’s 100% reliable indicator. Personally I would be concerned that something is wrong if I didn’t have it as I have it every single month.I know some ppl don’t but I do, so TO ME PERSONALLY it would be weird and could indicate that something is different.

@vaNillacake that’s fine if it’s a personal preference, but don’t go around saying that if you don’t get a bleed then that’s concerning. That’s fear mongering other users.

@Kitarah I shared that I would panic if that happened to ME.. I ‘didn’t go around’ and say ppl should be worried

@virgoooo14 you can't determine tone over text

I was in a 5 year monogamous relationship and let my partner finish in me every time, currently in a relationship of almost 3 years and do the same, never gotten pregnant.

{A1Juhg5wA} @vanillacake well you said it there so

My SO never pulls out, I got zero kids.

@Kitarah 🤦🏽‍♀️ I didn’t say anything about NOT bleeding. I said it’s a good sign if you do bleed..

@VAnillacake And I corrected you earlier saying that it doesn’t matter 😂 bleeding is not a good indicator of pregnancy. Taking your pills correctly is. There are tons of users on here that don’t bleed at all and they are not pregnant

@vanillacake and what I was saying earlier that if you freak out when you don’t get a bleed and it’s your preference that you do get a bleed, that fine. But don’t openly say that “withdrawal bleeding is still a sign of no pregnancy” because that’s not true.

@Kitarah I never said no bleeding = pregnancy. What I said: bleeding = no pregnancy and then for being precise I added, unlikely pregnancy. these are different things. I don’t understand your problem.

@kitarah i truly believe you misunderstood me which is okay, just read the thread again xx

@virgoooo14 hope you got some answers tho xx

@vaNillacake nope I didn’t misunderstand you. I just want you to understand that bleeding literally means nothing while on birth control.

@Kitarah I think @vanillacake got the point and is on the same page.

@seechell 😂😂 listen atleast we know it works, i see way too many cryptic pregnancy posts

@virgoooo14 it wasn’t mean to be a harsh reply. But if you’re feeling that much anxiety and distrust over it that you have to take pregnancy tests every month then why would you do it? Many people on here let their partner cum in them because the whole point of the pill is to protect against pregnancy.

I sometimes do, sometimes we use condoms. depends on the mood and if i want to clean up😂 I understand being paranoid about it, but if you are and its causing you stress, i would use condoms too.

@sunsetgal thank youuuu! i feel like it’s super normal to get a little worried once i. a while, pregnancy in this state of the world is not something most ppl would want

@virgoooo14 i agree 100%! i’ve never wanted children so it’s always been hard to trust birth control😅 cause you hear sooo many horror stories online

@virgoooo14 taking a pregnancy test monthly isn’t ‘a little worried every once in a while’. That’s all the time. Every month. Maybe talking to a therapist about this anxiety will help.
