Hello Anonymous,

Since you got your period the same day that the condom broke, you did not get pregnant from that sexual encounter.

If taken within 72 hours of having unprotected sex, the morning after pill is 89% effective in preventing pregnancy. If you do not get your period within 3 weeks of taking the emergency contraceptive, test for pregnancy.
