The Patch is 99% effective against pregnancy on it's own. I think (although I am only fifteen, and I could be wrong) it would be fairly safe to ejaculate inside of her, but it is not the smartest thing to do to avoid pregnancy.

While statistically the patch may be 99%, if in fact accurate, the realistic number is often quite lower because of a variety of a variety of factors.

An excellent rule of thumb is this:
* If you are not prepared to father a child, wear a condom, always.
* If she is not prepared to be a mother, she should use the patch or use an other highly reliable for her protection.
* In addition, a third line of defense is recommended, that being a spermicide in the vagina.

If, for whatever reason a girl/woman cannot use a contraceptive, the two of you should use a condom and spermicide. One is not good enough.

You are correct to be worried about pregnancy. It doesn't matter so much what the statistical number is for any contraceptive, there are lots and lots of cases in which people tried tempt fate and lost, because anything less than 100% means a pregnancy is possible with some number out of 100.

If you do not want to wear a condom, wear one anyway and add a dab of lube to the head of your penis only before rolling it on. If you still do not want to wear a condom the stick with Foreplay and do not engage in intercourse. You will discover that your climaxes are more apt to be more intense, anyway.

All of the hormonal systems advertise 99% effectiveness. In actual, real-life use, of 100 sexually active women on the patch (or other hormonal system). three will become pregnant.

We actually do not show effectiveness in percentage because there is no way of calculating that not knowing when women have sex during fertile periods. We count as number of pregnancies per 100 women per year.

If being daddy is too risky for you, do not do it.
