I am 18 years old and my boyfriend and I
had intercourse this morning and the
condom broke. What are the chances that
I could be pregnant? I am expecting my
period on august 15th.

You ovulate 14 days before your cycle
begins. Since you're expecting ur period
on the 15th, that means when you had sex,
you were probably ovulating at that time.
A woman is most fertile during ovulation
(when ur ovaries release an egg), and
since the condom broke and you were most
likely ovulating, there is a greater
chance of u being pregnant.
I'm not trying to scare you, but go to ur
dr and get the morning after pill asap!!

I have to agree with june4life get to your
doctor/family planning centre asap.
The morning after pill works upto 72 hours
after intercourse so if you had sex
morning of 1st then 2nd would be 24hours,
3rd - 48hours, 4th - 72hours.
The sooner it is taken the more chances of
it being sucessful.
Unless of course you want this baby...
