what are the chances of me gettings pregnant if i had sex with a condom that had alot of room at the top, and it ended up having a rip in it. My boyfriend was going off while coming out, and i took the plan b morning after pill 30 min after it happened. If the last time i took the pill was the 31 could i still be having problems from it? even if it was the first time i took it? thanks
ps im not on birthcontrol. (link)

Hey. Sounds like you did everything right. Most people experience "condom failure" at some point in their lives. You took Plan B right away.
I would say that your chances of geting pregnant are very low, but I don't know the exact statistical number. The web site, http://www.go2planb.com/ForConsumers/Index.aspx
says that it reduces your chance of getting pregnant by _up to_ 89%. So if your chances of getting pregnant were, say, 10%, those chances would be changed to, at the very least risk, 1.1%. That's just an example.
The good news is that you took it right away. Man, if my daughter were sexually active I would definitely want her to be like you - prepared and ready to take control and make darned sure nothing happens! I admire you.
I don't know what you mean by "could I still be having problems from it?"
Best wishes for you (and I don't think the chances are enough for you to worry about).

thank you, the pill is suppose to give you side affects. I heard they could last up to 5 days which doesn't seem weird at all because one plan b pill is equal to at most 8 birthcontrol pills. Lately ive had some stomach cramping and thats it. Thank you for the advice it makes me feel way better
