Thank you so much for the information! You've really set my mind at ease.

I feel really let down by the doctor I saw - she also didn't mention that the first 7 days of contraceptive pills require additional protection - it does say it on the box in fine print, but I was pretty embarrassed about the situation and didn't read it - it's my first time being sexually active. I've decided to move to another medical practice (my current one is far away from where I currently work anyway) and see a new doctor when I go for a smear test, as I don't feel confident in the doctor I was seeing.

My lovely boyfriend has been wonderful about it all - he was very calm about the possibility of being pregnant, angry at the doctor, and perfectly supportive of my fears and embarrassment. We've got the hang of using condoms now and they are disappearing at an alarming rate :)
