Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. Since the condom got stuck in the vagina after the intercourse, it is possible for some spillage of semen to happen and if you happen to be in the fertile phase of the cycle, conception chances are high. Yet, use of emergency contraceptive pills should be restricted to only once or twice a year. This is because the high hormone content in the pill creates hormone disturbances and fertility problems in future.another way of emergency contraception is the insertion of an IUD soon after the intercourse to prevent implantation. Hope this helps.
