What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy After Taking Morning-after-pill Followed By Sex?

Hi me and my boyfriend had sex. He did ejaculate completely he only precum. He took off the condom and stretched it and then blew in it to check if there was leaks there was no sighns of leaks but then we put water in it to check there was no sigh right away but then we saw a leak towards the middle/top part of the condom (not the tip). Is there any chance he got some in me, he says it was snug. I took the morning after pill 12-15 ours later the emergency contraception. Is there chances of me getting pregnant

Hello,
I had gone through your query and understand your concern.

Short answer: Less chances of getting pregnant.

Detailed answer:
Getting pregnant after sex depends on many factors.

In your case, a male condom was used. The failure rate of male condom is 18%. Again a small leak may increase this failure rate.

As you have taken morning after pill within 72 hours, chances of getting pregnant are very less. Failure rate of pill is 9%

Added to these, if you are in safe period which is 1 to 7 days and 21 to rest of days of the mentrual cycle, then possibilities are very less.

Condom+morning after pill+safe period= very very less chance of getting pregnant.

Condom+morning after pill+unsafe period= again very very less chances.

If you still have any doubts, you can go for urine pregnancy test once you are sure that you have missed your periods.

Hope I have answered your question.

Regards,
Dr. PRATHAP KUMAR
