Hello my name is Alyssa and I am 17 years old. My boyfriend and I (of 3years) just had sex last night. We used protection but I am not on any kind of birth control. He ejaculated twice and once we finished we realized the condom busted... I just got off my period on 3/2/14 and we had sex 6 days later. Is it possible that I have a higher chance of being pregnant or no?

You shouldn't be looking at it in how likely... because there is a 100% CHANCE of it happening... if it does or not depends on many factors most outside of yhour control, And it could happen up to a week after you have sex. The sperm can live up to that long. You can't even test for it until you are at least two weeks late for your next period.
TIme you both learn about human reproduction... and how to properly use birth control.
Condoms only break because of abuse. They should only ever be used ONCE then discarded... and they should never be kept in a wallet, or the car. Both places experience tempreatures that over time degrade the material.
I can stretch one over my head... the one on my shoulders... I can also inflate it almost three feet long... and that's an average size one.

Hi Ataylor007,
What is the normal length of your cycle... from one period till the next? If you follow the average, the sex would have been at a time when couples who are trying to become pregnant are often encouraged to be doing so. General rule of thumb as a starting place is that you are likely to ovulate about 12-16 days before the next period is due.
As smoothy said, only one ejaculation per condom. It would be wise for you to also be using some type of birth control, in addition to the use of a condom by your boyfriend, to lessen the odds even more. It won't guarantee a pregnancy wouldn't happen, but it would make it less likely.
Now you will have to wait and see what happens when your next period is due. If it doesn't show as expected, give it sometime to see if it is just late. If still no period, try a pregnancy test.
