sooo... it's been five days since the condom teared and the guy came inside me...
i've done research and i don't know what to do. i had my period not to long before we had sex, is there a chance this means i won't pregnant? even though he came REALLY DEEP inside me? what is the waiting period for taking a test? i bought the test already because i'm dying to know. and even though it's been five days can i still take some type of morning after pill? if so, what pill?
They keep changing the law on the age requirement on this. At one time girls 14 an older could get the Plan B without parental permission or prescription. Now I think the law is age 16 or 17. You should check for if you are old enough and 7 days have not passed it still may be effective. It is most effective within 48 hours but they have found that is is still somewhat effective up to 7 days after coitus. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

It is typically best to wait at least 2 weeks after the possible conception date to take a pregnancy test, though if you were to go to the hospital they can check for the hormone much sooner. As for the Morning after pill, I'm sorry but it is too late for you to take it. It's only meant to work within 72 hours after the fact. The best thing to do is keep track of your periods and learn about your ovulation dates, this way you can avoid having sex on those days. Should it prove that you are not pregnant that is. As for being pregnant, I don't know your ovulation cycle, so it is difficult to say. There are plenty of sites though that can give you a good estimate on ovulation dates. All you can really do now is wait. Hope this helps
