My g/f recently informed me that her mother got her on the shots. Can someone tell me how effective these are? I mean I will still wear a condom when we have sex (can never be too careful) but if the condom breaks????
Thanks

Women are hypochondrics(not sure about the spelling). 99.6%, Muftak said it. This doesn't necessarily mean that you'll be in the 0.4% part. Damn, stop worrying, if you don't do anything wrong nothing's gonna happen.

One if you've never had sex you wouldn't worry. Pregnancy can change your whole life. If there's one women who could get pregnant, it could be you. Tell me not to worry and watch me end up with a kid..whatever
Kapeesh?

That is one of the best birth prevention things around...that shot. Cause...condoms fail 15% of the time, and birthcontrol 7% I think? But, there are side effects to this...not like you care, you're the guy. But, depression comes along with this shot...and so do headaches, and nausea.

The birth control shot, Depo Provera, is extremely effective, even more so than female sterilization. I think this is the correct order of effectiveness:
1) Male sterilization
2) Depo Provera
3) Female sterilization
4) Birth control pill
5) Condom
6) Withdrawal
Please feel free to correct me if any of this is incorrect.
