once you're pregnant, your pregnancy won't go away by having sex. No birth control- pills or condoms- end a pregnancy once it has started. If you're pregnant you're pregnant and that's it.
If you are on the pill and taking is correctly meaning every day as prescribed, then is is very unlikely that you will get pregnant even if you don't use a condom. However, this is a very very small possibility that you could get pregnant, and using a condom would make this likelihood even smaller, so there would be less chance of you getting pregnant in the first place.

The two operate independently of each other.
If the condom has a 99% probability of preventing pregnancy (or probability of becoming pregnant is 0.01), and the probability of preventing pregnancy for the pill is 98% (or the probability of becoming pregnant is 0.02), the probability of both together is 0.01*0.02 = 0.0002, which means that the two together will prevent pregnancies 99.98% of the time.
However, once you are pregnant, the condom will do nothing to stop the pregnancy from moving forward, and the pill won't have much effect unless you take a DANGEROUS amount of them immediately after sex - which effectively mimics the "morning after" pill.
Taking the pill regularly will have no effect once the pregnancy has started.
If you had sex in the last few hours and you don't feel you were suitably protected against sex, go to the drug store and get the morning after pill ... and do it now while it still might work.

If you wear a female condom and he wears a condom that will cause friction and most likely both of the condoms with break. So no you don't have to wear a condom. HE does. Condoms are not used to prevent pregnancy {even though they help} but they do fight against sexually transmitted diseases.So make sure he wears a condom and you keep on taking that bc. You'll be fine. Whatever happens it's not worser than dying.

many women each year inadvertently take pills being unaware they are already pregnant. In the U.S. and Europe, in approximately 2-5% of all pregnancies mothers have a history of having taken birth control pills without realizing they were pregnant. Many years ago, with higher dose contraceptive pills, there were concerns that the hormones in pills could produce genital changes in both male and female babies. Subsequent studies have failed to confirm this. At the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada, the Motherisk program which tracks various birth defects, there is a good article on oral contraceptives and their effect on pregnancy. This article suggests that there is no need to be concerned about the pills causing birth defects any more than the background rate of birth defects that normally occurs.

If you are taking birth control pills as directed, your chances of getting pregnant will be very small, even smaller if you or your boyfriend uses a condom too.
Whether or not you are on the pill, it's still a good idea to use a condom, because it protects against disease as well as pregnancy.

As long as he is wearing a condom your ok. Also remember other things can come out of sex besides a baby like STD's and some you can't get rid of. Always use a condom, get tested every year, and a little FYI they don't test for herpes through blood so always pay attention to you body to notice if you are having any pains down below. Wrap it up 100% of the time!

? never use two condoms they would rub and maybe split.
if you on the pill good for you its safer way of not getting pregnant, but its not 100% its 98%
and if you taking medication like antibiotics (tablets from the doctor) the pill might become 0% effective as the tablets will cancel the pill out so it wont work.
if your worried about becoming pregnant you should also be worried about STD's you should really be talking to your Doctor about this, i take it you must be very young, talk to your mum or dad but probably doctor is better idea.

if you're on a pill and as long as you take it properly (right time and dont skip them etc) then it should stop you from getting pregnant, whether or not you use a condom. although, condoms do add another form of contraception so using boths always good. there's like the tinest weeniest chance you might get pregnant on the pill but its not likely :) ... <3

So you are on birth control but you didnt use a condom? It is still possible to get pregnant while you are on the pill, but its a slim chance unless you are not taking them right.

OK, that is REALLy confusing but from what I could tell it was:
You use birth control instead of condoms. You got pregant. You are still taking pills. You don't know if Birth Control will abort the baby.
Answer: No, you would increase your chance of a multipul birth and possibly harm the baby(s).
