My cycle is

I had intercourse on the 30th and the condom broke.
>What are my chances of getting pregnant? Probably unlikely, since you had taken the pill for 13 days. However, 1-3% of women taking the pill will still become pregnant. If in doubt, most home pregnancy tests will show if you are pregnant about 2-3 weeks after conception.
