Ok so me and a guy I have been friends with for years decided to start hooking up and the last four months we have been very safe about it all we use condoms religiously and I'm on birth control and we'll the pill is still very new to me and that's no excuse but I missed my pill Friday Saturday and Sunday . Once I remembered I took it Monday as normal . He came over Monday morning after work and we did it as normal using a condom . And discovered once we finished that the condom had broke and he did cm. I freaked out as normal went to bed and I woke up in morning and started my period so I know I may be pregnant but what's the chances I'm not.?

Hello Anonymous,

You are not pregnant because you started your period the next morning.

Each month, when you are not pregnant, the lining of your uterus sheds. This is what you see when you have your menstrual period.

When you become pregnant, hormones keep the lining of your uterus intact. The fertilized egg implants in the lining and develops. That is why a woman does not get her period when she is pregnant.

Regards,
Maryann
