my girlfriend is on ortho triclycle lo. she has been taking them for 2 months and about a week. we had sex the other night with a condom but the condom broke. i know the worse i did was pre-cum in her and i urinated before we did anything. what are the chances she is pregnant?

When taken correctly, birth control pills are 98% effective!

She needed to only be on them one full week for them to be effective, this info is also in her pill package leaflet.

You both are well protected.
