But my question is...well, My boyfriend
and I had sex three times. He used condoms
for those times, though i didn't use the
"birth pill". and i'm scared of becoming
pregnant, because the first time i've had
sex with him is two/three days after my
period ended...so is there a chance that
i'll become pregnant? please, i need to
know.

No birth control (in this case condoms) is
100%. But good for you for using
something! Your risk is pretty low, but
risk always exists unless you don't have
sex at all.
You should get on some birth control also.
Condoms and birth control are more
effective.

you used a condom, and unless it broke
which he would know of and tell you, that
would really be the only way to become
pregnant, yeah condoms are only 99% but i
do not think you are pregnant. wait 14
days from when you last had sex and if it
is positive ou are prgnant, which i dont
think you are.
I would suggest getting on Birth Control,
and maybe not having sex until you know
what can happen and the risks of having
sex, so you are not worried other times
when you have sex.

Condoms are 98% effective when used
correctly. Birth control pills are 99%
effective.
You can go to a planned parenthood clinic
near you and discuss your birth control
options. Birth control is probably going
to be free, so load up on it.
