So on the 5th of July my girlfriend and I had sex using the Trojan Bareskin condoms, however it ripped and I did "pull out" when I felt the urge to ejaculate. She took the Plan B pill 6 hours later. On the 7th we had unprotected sex however it was not for long. Again we were very worried and roughly 64 hours later she took another Plan B pill. We knew this could severely mess up her cycle. She did end her period on the 3rd of July from the previous month. However she did get her period earlier than usual on July 14th possibly due to the pills. She ended her period roughly the 18th or 19th. Then on the 22nd we had sex, however I did penetrate her once without a condom, I had urinated prior since I did read pre-ejaculate could carry sperm from a previous ejaculation. We came to our senses and put the condom on and proceeded as usual (I always pull out whether it is with a condom or not). I was wondering if perhaps her body has skipped ovulation this month due to her having her period early. In total, my question is if she is likely to get pregnant due to her previous period and when will her next period be? She can be quite irregular towards the end of the month sometimes starting as early as the 22nd to the 28th. Would her period occur on the 14th or 15th of next month or would it occur on the regular time she usually has it? Thank you very much!
Also as a little sidenote, I understand we have made a mistake. I did not come here to be belittled or insulted. We have talked and agreed upon using the pill and condoms in combination if nothing happens this month. Thanks in advance.

You get happy adult points for discussing sex, your mistakes, and how to proceede. Congratulations on using two methods of birth control and not having one of them being an emergency contraceptive pill.
The emergency contraceptive pill works best if taken ASAP and it's effectiness drops as you wait. So the first pill probably covered the first Whoops. The second was probably wasted, but it is hard to say. She get her "I'm not pregnant" on the 14th, so the chances of the indiscretion on the 7th taking is slim. Now after that... there is a chance for pregnancy because no matter how much you piddle you can still have sperm in your pre-ejaculate. Taking a piss will only clear out what is there and it isn't an absolute clean either. There are no absolutes in biology.
With the PlanB pills taken along with unprotected sex and the like, it is neigh on impossible to say when she's going to get her period. It could come at the end of the Birth Control pills, or it could come in the middle, or not come at all because she's pregnant. The only thing you can do is wait. Use barrier birth control and make sure you're using reliable condoms as well. If a particular brand tend to fail with you than don't use them. Find something reliable and use that.
So if she doesn't get a period in a month or so, take a home pregnancy test. If her period starts in the middle of the set of pills. Start a new pack according to the directions. So if you start taking the pills on the first day of your period. Start the new pack then. Discard the partial pack.
Good luck.

Where ever you heard peeing will change anything... stop believing everything else they say. THat is even more useless than pulling out is to prevent a pregnancy. In fact peeing is completely worthless. Pulling out is almost worthless. Having sex without a condom is actively trying to get her pregnant if you finish or not.
Despite taking the plan b pill, she could still get pregnant. THey aren't 100% effective and they do have bad side effects. Neither of you can know when her next periods going to be because its totally screwed up now for a month or more.
You both have to wait.
But using both the pill and comdoms in you situations is the first wise thing you both will have done. Keep in mind even that doesn't reduce chances to zero, but it will be more effective than either alone would be. And thats a good thing. But never forget there are TWO prominent members here I've known for years... that have gotten pregnant while using THREE forms of birth control. One of them twice. It can still happen.

Her periods will likely be back on track for August since the emergency pills were used early in July. Wait until the end of August to see if her period shows.
The pills may have prevented ovulation, or they may have just caused irregular bleeding. For now, it's just waiting to see if all gets back on track next month. She should see her doctor to discuss which type of birth control pills would be best for her to use.
