What are the chances of pregnancy if I did this?

Unread post by veronica37111 »

During intercourse, the condom broke. My bf hadn’t fully ejaculated yet, but obviously pre-cum is still in the picture. He immediately stopped and we then got a plan B to give us some peace of mind. This happened 2 days after my period ended. What are the chances that Im pregnant? Im taking a blood test to make sure I get a clear answer. But I still wish to know.

Hi veronica37111,

So, while we can't say there was NO risk from this, the risk that there was is low, and you've done what you can to minimize it as much as possible (you can see the effectiveness of withdrawal, which is what you functionally used, and Plan B here: The Buddy System: Effectiveness Rates for Backing Up Your Birth Control With a Second Method)

Would it be helpful to talk about some additional birth control methods you could use along with condoms? Or how to use condoms in a way that makes them the least likely to break?
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.

Thank you, Sam. I do hope I can go on birth control soon (If my doctor recommends it) So yes I would like some additional methods on it and condoms.

Hi veronica37111,
Here is the article on effective condom use:

And here is one about different birth control options:

Are there any methods you have heard of or are particularly interested in?
