Can you get pregnant if you use contraception?

Patient's question:

Every time I have sex with my boyfriend, I take birth control pills or have my boyfriend use a condom. Will I get pregnant if I use contraception?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, when having sex with your boyfriend, if you use contraception, it is generally not possible to get pregnant. However, if you take birth control pills or use condoms, the success rate reaches about 80%, with a 20% chance of pregnancy. This is because birth control pills can also be successful in preventing pregnancy. If a condom breaks or leaks and sperm enters, there is still a chance of pregnancy.
