It is a given that if used improperly condoms don't actually work. A lot of people clearly chose not to wear them all the time, fail to pinch the tip and other things that would be considered improper use. But putting aside fairly obvious points of failure it is often noted they are 98% effective with perfect use(which from what I understand is basic sense) However devices like the IUD and implant are more like 99.99% perhaps 60 in 1.2 million, hence failure rates for female birth control is extremely slim. However the question I have, is for experienced condom users. Is an oops pregnancy all that common, my parents have used them for 25 years without fault.
