What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy If The Condom Broke?

quick question. if anyone can provide me with an answer, it would be much appreciated. my bf is freaking out like you wouldn't believe. last night we had sex, the condom he was using broke. i'm already 5 days late for my period. i figured it was just stress..about an hour ago i started..i know the sperm can live in the uterus for a few days..and i was just wondering if anyone knows if i can get pregnant?

Hello,
I have gone through the query and understood your concern. At the outset let me inform you that the fertile period of a cycle is the ovulation period which occurs two weeks prior to the onset of the next period. Since you had the intercourse just around your expected period, you cannot conceive. As you are already on your menstruation now, there is absolutely no reason to worry. Please use double protection hereafter to avoid such inconveniences. For your information, the sperms can remain active for 3-5 days while the ovum can remain alive for 24 hours. Hope this helps.
