What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy?
Yes I had a medical abortion on 3/14/14 & had intercourse on 3/23 & condominium broke. I was not on any BC I was going to get my Rex on my 2week follow up. I took plan within 5 hrs & at my follow up appointment everything was good & am now on BC Loestrin Fe. Are my chances of getting pregnant again high?

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If you have a condom accident, taking Plan B or another form of emergency contraceptive within 72 hours reduces your chance of getting pregnant by 90%. Furthermore, most women do not ovulate before two weeks after pregnancy. Therefore, I do not believe that you likely got pregnant from your condom accident.
The birth control pills you are taking, Loestrin FE, should protect you against pregnancy effectively in the future. It becomes effective within seven days of starting the pill, and if you remember to take your pill every day and fall the package instructions, you should not conceive as the pill is greater than 99% effective in preventing pregnancy. So in summary, it is unlikely you conceived from your unprotected encounter and since you are on birth control pills now, your adequately protected against pregnancy.
I hope I was able to adequately answer your question today, and that this information was helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Best wishes,
Dr. Brown
