Will using a condom cause pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Not yet ready for children, very afraid of getting pregnant after having sex with her boyfriend, will using condoms prevent pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, in general, using condoms during cohabitation usually does not lead to pregnancy, with a high success rate. Before cohabitation, it is important to carefully check if the condom is broken or leaking and use it correctly. The success rate of contraception is generally high, especially during ovulation, when more attention should be paid to taking contraceptive measures to avoid accidental pregnancy, which may cause harm to the body. If side leakage is detected, it should be timely to take emergency contraception pills. Taking emergency contraception pills has significant side effects and may easily lead to irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and other symptoms.
