Brief Answer:
chances may be less but not unlikely.

Detailed Answer:
hello,
thanks for trusting health care magic,
first of all, i stand confused regarding your last period which you mentioned 25th sept ( its 10th sept today). so i take it that you are talking about 25th august. considering that you are well within fertile period when you had sex . now the condom didnt burst but slipped and sperm leaked out before complete withdrawal of penis from the vagina, so the chances of pregnancy can be between 3-10 percent if you have not washed yourself after the episode. reason because sperms in ejaculate may have gotten stuck or spilled over thighs and perivaginal area, and they are known to stay alive for 72 hrs.
so it is difficult to negate completely the likelihood of you getting pregnant. i would like to suggest that you should opt for emergency contraception in form of Ipill within 72 hrs of intercourse. this would allow you to bleed in next 5-7 days and the chances of pregnancy would be negated.
In my opinion , prevention is better than cure, so you may take the ipill sooner.

Thanks, in case you have nay further queries you may contact me at:-

I washed the vaginal area very well after the episode...are there still chances of pregnancy?

Brief Answer:
chances are very less then.you may wait for menses

Detailed Answer:
hello,
thanks for the query.
if you have washed the vagina thoroughly then the chances are very minimum. considering this i can suggest that you may wait for your next menses, in case they are missed by more than 7 days , which is unlikely, do a urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. in my personal opinion i dont think that you would miss your period. but its always better to take precaution first rather than falling in the pit and then repenting.

if this is your first time for ipill, then i can understand your apprehension as ipill has some side effects of delaying future menses ( next 2 menses) and may cause heavy menses as well. in case you wish to avoid ipill then you may consider the above advise.
just keep calm and don't be nervous. stress can on the otherhand sometimes delay period on its own. so just relax and follow the advise.
thanks,
