    Is the condom THE birth control, or is there something else?

    How long have you been taking the pill -- more than a month? And regularly, as prescribed, not missing any?

    You should be pretty safe, then, although there are members on this site who used three forms of because and still got pregnant. How about taking a morning after pill?

    Loestrin 24Fe has a 1% failure rate if taken correctly (as opposed to 5% with other pills). I personally would guess I'm safe, but it's your call how confident you want to be. You know your medical history and pill-taking history; I don't.
