    Backwards Condom? Pregnant?
    My boyfriend and I were having sex with a condom and he ejaculated a small amount. We proceeded to have sex and when I put on another condom only the top part I realized it was on backwards and it touched the tip of his penis, I reversed it and we kept on going. He wiped the condom with his fingers to clear any sperm. However we are kind of worried now. As I am due to ovulate within two days. Should I be worried?

    You where having sex, yes there is always a chance for a little worry.

    There is a normal 3 percent failure rate with condoms when used correctly, the average when used over all ( so many don't do them right) put the failure rate at close to 10 percent.

    But there are people, some of the experts here that are parents who were using both condoms and the pill. So no method is 100 percent,

    So worry, not as much if you use two systems, a little more with only one, and if that one method was not done right a little more worry.

    If it is within 72 hours of the last sexual intercourse you can take plan b also know as the morning after pill. It should be available at the pharmacy counter @ your local drugstore.

    It only takes ONE sperm to fertilize an egg

    Just wiping the condom off with his fingers isn't going to remove all of the sperm. Even though he didn't come in that condom there could still have been residual sperm.
    While it will reduce the risk, like sunflower said, it only takes one...
