    Question

    I had sex with my boyfriend while I had my period, but it wasn't heavy. While we were doing that, we had on a condom. After we were done and he nutted I was laying on top of him while he was inside of me with the condom on. All of the sudden he told me that he felt something leaking on his leg, and when we checked, it was his sperm leaking out the condom. He was still inside of me. Then I felt strange like something went inside of me. When I felt that, he saw the condom was off of him and stuck on me. He pulled it out slowly. Ever since then, I've been feeling nause a and sick. I don't know if my mind is playing tricks on me, but I want to know if I am pregnant or not?

    Answer

    It is very important when using a condom to withdraw the penis from the vagina before the erection is completely gone, for this exact reason. Plan B can be used within 72 hours of unprotected sex or an accident like this, as back-up, too. The only way to know if you are pregnant is to wait until your period is due and use a home pregnancy test on the first urine of the day, or see a doctor. Sorry!
