This is the first time this has happened to my husband and I, the condom broke during sex. We realized it was broke before he ejaculated but don't know how long it was busted. How likely is it to become pregnant in this situation? The first day of my last period was 11 days prior to this occurrence. I am just a little worried about becoming pregnant and causing harm to the baby because of certain medications I am currently taking.

*IF* he hadn't recently ejaculated OR had urinated and cleaned his penis since ejaculating the risks are relatively low. However if he had ejaculated recently there is a higher chance that there was viable sperm in his ureter or on his penis and that probably puts the risk of pregnancy close to the normal 8%

Withdrawal when one follows the rules is as effective as condoms. However if you are taking medications that could be harmful to the baby condoms alone are insufficient, you are taking a 10-18% chance that you will become pregnant over the course of a year.

* IF
* before penetration a man who has recently ejaculated urinates to get rid of any left over sperm.
* the tip of the penis is wiped dry of lubricating fluid before penetration
* the penis IS withdrawn BEFORE ejaculation
* ejaculation occurs outside the vagina and well away from the vaginal opening
* THEN
* withdrawal has an approximately 80-90% effectiveness rate, or better.
* BUT
* control is difficult. This last minute method is risky. It offers NO protection from sexually transmitted infections, including HIV; even the pre-ejaculate fluid can contain infection along with sperm

The more significant finding, however, was that most pre ejaculate samples did not contain any sperm and those that did had only small clumps of a very small amount of sperm which seemed to be immobile. A larger study is needed to verify these results. If these results are confirmed, they may dispel the myth that pre ejaculate fluid contains sperm. An ongoing WHO/USAID study shows that the pregnancy rate caused by men with 3 million sperm/ml/ejaculation is very low; fertility clinics consider men with a sperm count of no more than 5 million/ml to be infertile, particularly if is there is low motility. The average ejaculation has about 100 million sperm/ml, but about 10 million sperm pass through the cervical mucus, about 1 million make it to the top of the uterine tract, and just about 100,000 sperm reach the fallopian tubes. Thus, only a couple of sperm, assuming motility, would reach the fallopian tubes in the case of the pre ejaculate samples with some sperm, which tended to be immobile (sperm levels only in the 1000s). Thus, the probability of pregnancy is very low if pre-ejaculate fluid enters the vagina.

Although there is usually a little bit of "pre-come" (Yahoo! censors the acual spelling) before the actual ejaculation, the chances of pregnancy by pre-come would be low, because quite often there isn't even any sperm in the pre-come. If he had urinated since his last ejaculation, then there shouldn't be any sperm in the urethra, and therefore no sperm in the pre-come.

So I would say that your chances of becoming pregnant because of the broken condom without an ejaculation are very, very low.

Hope this helps!! If you're still worried, I'd ask your doctor about it.

There's always a chance, just because he didn't finish doesn't mean that he didn't have any pre-ejaculate. This contains sperm as well, so there is always a possibility. Just keep a close eye on your body for the next few weeks, and wait it out. Good luck to you.

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.

A BIG CHANCE I'm afraid. Usually a man looses sperm along the way before he finally comes to the end. IF there is anyway for you to stop taking those medications at least until you have your period to make sure, it would be safer for the baby, if you are pregnant. God knows you heart and your wishes. I pray he blesses you and your husband with the needs you have.

Infertility can be caused by a huge number of factors: hormone imbalance, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Endometriosis, Anovulatory Cycles, physical blockage, inadequate hormone production, short luteal phase, lack of lutenizing hormone, high levels or prolactin, and many others.

Poor nutrition often plays a major role, as does exposure to toxins. Age plays less of a role before menopause than was originally thought. While there are many wonderful naturally minded fertility specialists out there, in many cases it is not possible for them to test for and address any of these possible underlying issues.

The chances are very slim, but yet still possible. I would get a pregnancy test and take it within the next 5 days, and then again a week after that. For an even quicker method, go to your gyn. and they can take a blood test with nearly instant results of whether you are pregnant or not.

"pre-nut" as we call it, does contain sperm and you can get pregnant. There is a reason why they say to never use the "pull out" method, because it doesnt always work. But honestly, I have never heard of anyone actually getting pregnant from someone that didnt finish. But I would just wait it out, take a test if you dont get your period...And above all, dont stress about it, cause that can delay your period as well...Good luck!
