is it possible to get pregnant on birth control?

Question

hiiii. so I started birth control pills like 3 months ago and I’ve been taking them every single day like I’m supposed to. of course, there have been several days when I forget to take them one night but I always just take that one the following morning. 
My boyfriend and I always have a condom on when we have sex either way.
I’ve been experiencing some tender breasts the past few days, and my belly is really bloated. But it’s my fertile week and today is the last day. I’m having normal discharge I think, it’s clear and sometimes white. Idk, is there a possibility at all? 
Thanks :)

Answer

Honestly nothing is 100% protective unless you don’t have sex. I got pregnant with my first when I was on the pill, and I took it religiously. Sometimes your body reacts different on different pills. However, your symptoms also sound pretty typical of pms. Continue to be careful and still use condoms as well and you should be good. You can always talk to your dr about it also.

Answer

You don’t have a fertile week while taking the pill. It’s possible though since you’re missing so many that you do ovulate. The condom should provide the extra protection you need. I’d look into a different method, the pill isn’t fit everybody.

Answer

Technically there's always a possibility, but boob pains and bloat are pretty common with and without pregnancy. Usually after you ovulate, so you may have already if you're just going off of the apps guess.

Answer

The pill is 99.7% effective.
If he’s also using condoms, the chance of is basically zero.

Answer

Theres a 0.3% chance but youre reducing it wither further by using condoms.
You dont have a fertile week with birth control bc you dont ovulate at all
