Birth Control/Unprotected sex with birth control

Question
I have been on birth control for about three months. I've never missed a pill and I always take it at the same time everyday. My boyfriend and I started to have unprotected sex after a month of being on it like the doctor said was fine. Lately I've been having craving for him to ejaculate inside of me because he always pulls out. Would this be such a bad idea? What are the odds of getting pregnant?

Answer
Birth control pills are excellent birth control, and don't require that the male withdraw before ejaculation.  As long as you don't miss any pills, the chance of getting pregnant is very small.  Of 100 couples using birth control pills correctly for 1 year, less than 1 would get pregnant.  It's safe for your boyfriend to ejaculate inside you.
