Q: Chances of Pregnancy

I was wondering what the chances of pregnancy are in the following scenario:

the male uses a condom and the female has been on birth control for at least 3 years. About halfway through intercourse (well before ejaculation), the first condom breaks. After a few seconds, the male pulls out and uses a new condom. The other condom stays intact. The male also pulled out when ejaculation occured later while using the second condom. The only real worry involves the condom that broke for a few seconds in the middle of intercourse (well before ejaculation). It seems like a very small chance (especially due to the female being on birth control), but was wondering about it to help ease worrying a little, since this has never happened before.

Thanks!

If the females birth control is up to date and taken accurately then the chances are negliable.

Not impossible because most birth control used 100% accurately gives a 98-99% protection rate.

So if the condom had spermicidal lubricant (most do) and he didn't ejaculate inside you (without a condom) then there would only be the risk of pre-cum and if you pulled out right away and changed the condom and on birth contol then it'd be less than a 1% chance.

I'd say the chance is quite nil. I've had a similar condom mishap on one occasion and I did not end up cursed with pregnancy. Even if the woman wasn't on birth control, i'd say the chance was still very small.

cursed with pregnancy? Lol... It isn't a curse!! Anyway, i'd say your chances of being pregnant are extremely slim.
