Condom Broke, Taken Pill. Any Chance Of Becoming Pregnant?

Is there a chance of me getting pregnant? - What are the chances?

Hello,
On April 29th, my boyfriend and I had intercourse, when we finished we realised the condom broke - I quickly went to the bathroom and tried to get most of "it" out. I then rushed to the gynae and got morning and after pills (postinor 2) I took it an hour after the whole incident 5pm - within the next 12 hours, so 5am I took the second pill, as said on the instruction box. Just extra information, im supposed to be expecting my period next week.

Today (March 1st) we had intercourse, and again it happened, the condom had a tear and we did not realise ti'l after (I assume it justs a box of bad condoms, so im throwing them away - cause we've had intercourse before and this has never happened) I then took another postinor 2, at 6pm - so in the next 12 hours i'll be taking the second pill.

What are the chances of me getting pregnant? I am really worried. And did I overdose myself with postinor 2, because I would be taking 2 sets within two days. Please help me and reply as soon as you can.

Thank you so much!

Hello
Thanks for your query.
You definitely did overdose yourself.
Postinor 2 is not supposed to be taken so frequently, however I can see you had very less options.
The chances of pregnancy depend on what day of your cycle it was.
if you were near ovulation, unprotected sex has higher chances of pregnancy.
Postinor would lessen the odds, but bear in mind that it would throw your normal cycle into chaos, you would not be able to predict your next period.
take a pregnancy test 4 weeks after intercourse, if you havent had a proper period.
I find this answer helpful
