I'm on the pill. I just finished my period. I'm freaking out because the condom broke. I think I'm still safe, but I'm not sure. What are the chances that I could get pregnant? Should we buy a home pregnancy test?

If you are taking the pill correctly then you shouldn't have to worry about anything. Taken correctly the pill is like 99% effective in preventing a pregnancy, even if the condom broke.
There's also no point of buying a pregnancy test right now because you won't get an accurate reading until you are suppose to get your next period.
If you are REALLY freaked out then you can always get Plan B. If you are 18 and over you can buy it from any local pharmacy without a prescription (it's still behind the pharmacy counter though, so you need to ask them). If you are 17 and younger you need to get a prescription from your doctor. Good luck!

If you are sure that you have been taking the pill properly, every day at the same time, no missed pills, etc. you should be fine. Wait until next month to see if you get your period or not. If you don't, then I would suggest a home pregnancy test.

Go to the pharmacist IMMEDIATELY and get the 'morning after' pill. I believe it is available now for this purpose. Better safe than sorry. Good luck!
