    Default Shit! The condom broke.

    So the condom broke two hours ago and I'm sitting outside a walgreens with a closed pharmacy.
    I want to get planned b. How much is it?
    Also, I'm about two weeks from my last period. What are the chances of pregnancy?

    I trust the guy as much ascan be to not have any STDs that he knows about
    so I'm less freaked out about that because I know he's very consientious about using
    protection.

    Garh! I've never had this happen before.

    Its not that expensive....like $50. You can use it in a 72 hour period. So dont stress yourself out.
    Ain't nothing more important than the mula!!

    ok, so here's the deal. your chances of getting pregnant are fair, but plan b is effective for 72 hours after the sex took place. but only will stop the conception not terminate it. so the sooner the better. i have used it and it does work. best of luck.

    There are 24 hour Walgreen's in just about every town or city. You might have to drive out of the way to get there but it's better than being preggo.

    The pharmacy is closed for memorial day. I'm trying to call and see if one is open but thus far no luck.

    Here's a good question: Did he feel the condom break and just saw it as an opportunity to take advantage?


    Yay! was calling CVSs and found one open. Going to get one now.

    also, my period started on the 14th and lasted around five days. It's now the 30th, so I think that has me out of my most fertile window by a couple of days but I'd have to check

    Congratulations, you can't be any MORE fertile than you are right now. :-(

    Get that pill pronto, girlfriend... sooner the better. Taking it 4 hrs after the fact is much better than 70 hours after the fact.

    Sorry this happened!!! Been there! :-(

    Been there - just take the Plan B. You'll be fine

    This stuff happens. I know it's scary though. I flipped out about a year ago when I was in the same situation...my periods are totally irregular though so I generally have little idea when I'm most fertile (besides the fact that my sex drive goes through the roof...which isn't always due to ovulation).

    Good luck. You made a wise and responsible decision in acting fast.

    oh, I would never say I definitely can't get pregnant even if it was the day after my period. It's just when it comes to something so emotionally charged, it helps to grasp at little analytical pieces of information. Doesn't mean you can count on those little info-nuggets, but it just helps my state of mind to define the parameters of worst case scenario.

    Edit:
    1. My girlfriend has had condoms break twice and she told me to get vinegar and water douches, which I bought and did when I thought I couldn't find an open pharmacy. Thinking on it, I probably should have shoved a whole tubes worth of spermicide up there

    2. That is a very smart idea to have Plan-B hanging around. I wonder how long it stays good for. Especially since it's on sliding scale at Planned Parenthood and $40 (I bought the generic since the pharmacist assured me it was the same thing) at CVS. Thank God for CVS having their pharmacy open on Memorial Day. Seriously!

    I think most "failures" are guys rupturing the tip when they first put it on. Don't think you can damage it during actual usage, unless it came off (no pun intended) in which case, yeah, he would have felt the difference and wanted to feel that "just a bit longer."

    ^Reminds me of a time when a woman I was sitting next to on a plane was telling me to get off Birth Control because it's so bad for you. She was telling me that her and her husband had been using the Rythem Method successfully for the last 13 years....It was hard to hear her properly though, because her three kids were screaming in the seats next to us.

    OP, so glad you got your Plan B quickly!

    I'm sure most reading this probably know this, but fertilization takes place in literally seconds.
    By the time a person would go to douche or shove a whole tube of spermicide in there it's way too late for anything but PlanB.

    plan b is pretty effective and since you took it reasonably soon after you should be fine. However, Im just going to let you know that since its such a strong dose of hormones all at once, it will probably mess up your cycle, meaning that there is a good chance your period could be a week or more early or even late. Good luck!

    I started to post this link before I read that you got your Plan B. Figured I'd share anyway in case anyone's interested.

    I've taken myself off the pill because of side effects, but I keep a pack around so I can use them as EC if I have to.

    I don't remember where, but a long time ago I heard something about Italian prostitutes in the old days cleaning themselves with wine....

    Don't know if they really did, but it's worked well for me

    Just as a note, as I hear this commonly recommended:

    For those who recommend taking 5 birth control bills in place of Plan B...that only works for certain types of birth control, not all varieties. So if someone takes 5 pills of one of the pills that is not useful as a plan b, they can make themselves good and sick from all of those pills, and still be pregnant.

    Sperm CAN live in the female reproductive tract for 5, sometimes even 6 or 7 days. You can have sex on Monday, ovulate on Wednesday, and then egg+sperm meet and you become pregnant on the Friday.

    Furthermore, fertilization happens in the FALLOPIAN TUBE. Douches affect only the VAGINA.... they don't pass through your cervical os into your uterus.

    You can wash your vagina out with wine, vinegar, holy water, bleach, AND jet fuel, and then set off a firecracker in your pussy, and you won't affect what's going on in your uterus or fallopian tubes.

    ^rotfl

    One should hope he's not coming in your uterus anyway! looool

    If you douche immediately afterward (regularly), you're more likely to screw yourself over. At least when you're doing it with wine the alcohol kills the sperm as it washes it wherever it goes.

    -mental image of floating sperm corpses with x.x faces floating in an ocean of wine with an egg on a boat cackling- O_o

    My period came relatively on time, so yay. Hopefully it's a normal "you're not pregnant" period rather than one of those fucked up "you can still be pregnant and have a period" things.

    One weird thing that happened was that I got really bad cramps two days before the bleeding starting-- the type of cramps that signaled the period started, yet there was no blood.
    When the blood finally did show up, it was all brown and old looking-- now it's turning reddish, so it just seemed like maybe my body signaled it was ready to start the period but didn't open the floodgates so the fluid hung around and got funky looking waiting to make its exit.

    ah well. The weirdness of the human body, eh?

    ^^^ That can totally happen. Your hormones are all sorts of screwed up, and your body is just confused a bit. It should be fine next month. Have a happy period!

    I hope this means I only bleed for three days instead of five since it took 2 days for my body to start bleeding from the start of the cramps

    That would make me happy

    Okay, I'm officially pissed. I've had trace amounts of blood here or there but nothing big enough to even consider really spotting, and now I'm spotting for sure! I hope this doesn't mean I'm going to go through another period now BOOO!
