Q: My Situation

Hello, im new to the forums and have a sersious question/sitiuation to ask. I was having sex with my girlfriend tonight, with a condom, we have done it a few times and always before I ejaculate I always pull out of her just to be more safe. But tonight after I pulled out, I found that my condom ripped and there was nothing covering me anymore, so it all went on my bed. We talked about it and are both worrying alot, the condom was on and not ripped for more than half of the time becuase we pull out and check it, established that earlier today I masterbated, about 8 hours before me and her were sexually active. And that she just ended her period about 4-5 days ago.. Please help, whats the chances that something happened, what can I do to find out/prevent. Thanks

Well, there's always a risk of getting pregnant....Condoms aren't 100 percent effective all the time! Try not to worry about it and if she misses a period, take a test

For arguement sake lets assume a normal cycle of 28 days.
Sperm can live for up to 5 days and an eg is viable for around 36 hours after release.
In a normal 28 day cycle ovulation occurs around day 14 (14 days before the period) so from 5 days before that (day 9) to 36 hours after (day 15/16) is the fertile window.
Knowing her period was 4/5 days ago doesn't help you need the start date because day one is always the first day of the period but the period could last 3 days or could last 7 days.
And you see 4/5 days from day 3 (reasonably safe) to 4/5 days from day 7 (not safe) yeah?
Pre-cum can contain millons of sperm, sperm are made on demand, it has nothing to do with if you masturbated or not (and nothing to do with whether you pee'd or not either)

We tried to figure out the whole timesake of her period, and it was confusing. Her periods are about 7-14 days long, she loses too much blood do to an ulcer and an early age. Don't ask me why or how, but she tells me they last up to almost 2 weeks sometimes, and she said it was close to two weeks, I don't know if that helps, lets say two weeks, 14 days, then 4-5 days after that maybe 19 days after day 1, does that help? And my pre-ejaculation I think was before we started having sex, unless there are more than one stage of it.

Pre cum is pretty much present all the time during arousal.

If your girlfriend has unusual periods it makes things much more difficult to work out.

But day one is always the first day of period (bleeding) so if she knows how many days from day one until the next day one (28 is average, mine is 26 days, some people have 35 days, whatever is normal for your girlfriend)
then take 14 off that number as a rough guide to ovulation. The fertile window is from 5 days before until 2 days after.

So if she had 35 days from starting bleeding on one period until she started bleeding on her next period ovulation would be approx day 21 (35-14) and fertile from 5 days before (16) until 2 after (23) - this is just an example
