Q: 

Can you get pregnant the day before your period starts?

I slept with my friend & the condom broke. I'm due to start my period in the next day or two. I am on birth control & not missed any active pills, what is the likely hood of getting pregnant ? Should I take the plan b pill?

Dear Anon,

If you have regular cycles then this probably means that you were not ovulating on the night you had sex with your friend. However, this doesn't make it safe for you to have unprotected sex at any point during your cycle. What did you end up doing? Did you get your period by now?

Best,

Rosa

We had sex but as of this morning I haven't started & I'm supposed to start my new pack of birth control today. Not sure if I should try plan b or not
