The Pill is 99% effective in preventing pregnancy if taken correctly. It is best to wrap it up as well! Be Careful!!

If it is taken properly the failure rate is very low - about 0.2 per cent per year. Thanks for using ChaCha. We're here 24/7!

The birth control pill is usually about 95% effective, but is 99% effective when used with a condom. ChaCha again soon!
