-- you are using one of the best methods other then obstaning. the pill and a condom with a spermicade is a very accurate way of preventing pregnencies.both should be used togeather as you are currently doing.i believe the % of spermicade is the same with all brands of condoms and is measured to the amount needed.how ever to be as safe from getting pregnet they should not be used without another method because condoms are known to break leak or have small tears in them not visable to the eye.
