I had sex on friday night, and the condom ripped, and I'm not on birth control. But I did take the morning after pill the next day.
My period is always kinda irregular, like i never know what day exactly to expect it. But now my question is that....if you are pregnant, when you miss your period, do you still get cramps and other symptoms, and just no blood, or just no period or symptoms at all?
what are the chances of me being pregnant? i should be getting my period sometime this week, and today i had really bad cramps and my back hurt prtty bad too.

The pill can really mess up your entire body so don't worry about what's happening. It pumps you full of so many hormones at once that often, your body can't exactly take it. I took one once and I have been ridiculously careful ever since. It made the "PMS" worse, which is probably what you're experiencing, and my period came 2 weeks early. It freaked me out more than what had actually happened. Plus, the increased moodiness, aches, and pains weren't something I ever want to experience again.
It's good that you're being responsible sexually. Kudos for using a condom in the first place and even more kudos for getting the pill right away. For the future, make sure you are doing everything that the instruction booklet in the box of condoms says to do. Check it for tears once it's on, use lube, there's more but I won't list it all here... Condoms can be very effective if you use them right. The problem is, very few people do. Make yourself one of them and this won't happen again. Good luck. [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
russianspy1234 answered Thursday March 22 2007, 9:37 am: the morning after pill fucks with your cycle a bit, so you might not get your period at the time you normally would. your chances of being pregnant are really low, the pill is pretty effective, especially since you took it so quickly.

XoRoxy answered Thursday March 22 2007, 8:34 am: It sounds like you're gonna get your period. But if you were pregnant you wouldn't know this soon. If you took the morning after pill you should be fine. Cause that works most of the time. If you don't get your period by the end of this week or the start of next go buy a pregnancy test. They're not that much & it doesn't always hurt to have one. [ XoRoxy's advice column | Ask XoRoxy A Question ]
