Actually I think the failure rate on the pill is closer to 1 in 100. Someone will know.

 

Something I found on the net...

Birth control pills, the combined estrogen and progestin pills as opposed to progestin only pills, have a very good record of preventing pregnancy. If a woman takes the pills regularly and is not late or misses any, the pregnancy rate is only 1 per 1000 women (0.1%). No one is perfect however, so the typical use pregnancy rate is higher. Some studies indicate a 3% pregnancy rate and others indicate as high as 5%. thereforeeee, concern about possibly becoming pregnant while taking pills is common.

 

...if it's really as high as 5% that's pretty scary...
