Question
I am on the contraceptive injection, I have read up about what happens to the lining of the vagina and that it is harder for the egg to stay. I was just wondering, when I have sex is it now okay for the guy to ejaculate in me and not get pregnant?
Answer
The injections you get will protect you from pregnancy if you get them regularly, but they will not protect you from sexually transmitted infections, which is why we always suggest you use a reliable method of birth control and condoms.
