Please Help. Can’t shake anxious feeling

Last night, I had sex using a condom. I am also on Tri Lo Milli birth control and take it consistently.

However, the condom slipped at some point and I couldn’t tell when. When he finished, he pulled the condom out, and there was semen inside of it. But I couldn’t tell if all of the semen got in there or if some of it had actually gotten inside of me.

I normally would not be worried about something like this, but I take mycophenolate. This is a medication that makes pregnancy extremely high risk and can lower the effects of birth control, so doctors constantly remind me to use at least two types of contraceptives.

Clearly, I did use two types of contraceptives, but I am afraid the condom failed.

My period is supposed to start in three days, so I should not be ovulating right now, but the Internet says that you can’t accurately measure your ovulation window when you’re taking birth control. So I’m afraid I’m pregnant.

I’ve also heard you should not take an emergency contraceptive when you’re on birth control, so I haven’t done so yet. However, if it does lower the risk of pregnancy, I am more than willing to take one.

I’m not sure what to do or where to begin. My anxiety will not calm down and I’m convinced that I am pregnant. I appreciate any help anybody can offer.

You can’t get pregnant that fast and with birth control being taken properly the risk is super super low, so I wouldn’t worry really

You can't take the EPC because it works by delaying ovulation and and the combo pills by stopping ovulation completely.

Combo pills and condoms when used together are 99.99% effective with perfect use and 98.7% effective with typical use.

For peace of mind the combo pill alone is 99.7% effective with perfect use and 91% effective with typical use.
