Pregnant?
About 5 days ago, my boyfriend and I had sex. We used a condom, but when we were finished, we noticed it had slipped off and was still inside of me. I immediately pulled it out of me but my boyfriend says it was empty. And I know my boyfriend ejaculated, he said he did. However, I've been on birth control for about 2 years and I also took an emergency contraceptive, "the morning after pill" about 4 hours after we had sex. The pill I took was called Plan B and required me to take 2 pills. One immediately, and one 12 hours later, which I did. Lately, I have been feeling extremely nervous and hungry, even after I have just eaten my stomach feels empty again. Also, my heart beats appears to be beating faster lately. I am not supposed to get my period for another 2 and a half weeks either, so I cannot take a pregnancy test any time soon. But my question is, how likely is it that I am pregnant? The condom also had spermicide on it by the way. Please help! I'm 17/f.

Is this a joke? You've been on birth control for 2 years! That lowers the chances to 0.1%. Then plan b lowers it to 5% of that which is 0.005%. The spermicide lowers it to 10% of that so 0.0005%. And then a condom lowers it to 4% of that so it would be 0.0000125%. That's like one in a million. Since this has basically been a list of birth control options, I feel like this question is not serious.

Zero Chance.
Mathematically speaking, the fractions of a percentage point of chance are insignificant. It would take an act of God.
Birth control (taken as regularly as I'm sure you do) is already very effective. You ALSO took plan B 4 hours after.
Add spermicide on the condom, and the overall chances are like one in a few hundred thousand.
You are feeling nervous because you are worrying yourself to death. Heart rate increases are also due to being very nervous and stressed out. You are mentally creating your own symptoms.

Listen.
Relax, OK?
You took emergency contraceptive and you're on birth control.
Your heart is beating faster because you're anxious - it happens to me and everyone else, too.
The risk of you being pregnant is very small. Just be more careful in future if it scares you that much, or perhaps take a break from sex untill you get over it.

Birth control was plenty, I'm quite sure.
You are being very paranoid. That's probably why you are feeling so nervous. The nervousness is likely the cause of your heartbeat issue.
No offense, but if you are so paranoid about pregnancy, maybe you should avoid having sex?

I first of all would like to applaud you for being so cautious with all of this, most kids are not.
You used 2 forms of birth control (being the birth control itself, and the condom), along with the emergency contraceptive - and the odds are slim to none that you're pregnant. You're pretty much guaranteed to not be pregnant after taking plan B.
If you're still worried in 4 weeks you can go to the doctor, but I assure you due to your cautiousness, odds are you're not pregnant.
I would like to say 100%, but then I'd be lying, so I'll have to go with 99%.
I hope I've helped. Also, in four weeks you should go to the doctor for the checkup if you're still very unsure. But I wouldn't worry, because you've been very cautious and you've used more than one form of birth control.
I hope I was helpful & best of wishes.
