Plan B

So my girlfriend and I were having sex today with a condom (regular Trojans, not spermicidal), as usual. Today, it suddenly felt different, and we realized the condom had slipped off. We stopped as soon as we felt the change, I didn't come.
She isn't on birth control. I purchased Plan B as soon as I could, and she is going to take it tonight so she can take the second pull at the designated time twelve hours later next morning. The pharmacist said that pregnancy tests require you to wait until after her missed period, so I didn't pick one up yet--her period is in a week or two. Will I be okay?

If there was no semen, and she took the pills, you're in the clear for sure.
I'd suggest that you ask your girlfriend to start in on the pill, if there isn't a good reason that she stay off it. Redundancies aren't always bad things.
I second the above poster's advice about her getting on some BC. I personally use a NuvaRing, which only requires me to think about it twice a month (it's a vaginal ring you leave in for three weeks then take out for one) - it's very effective when used right and it's really easy to use right!
Thank you guys for your input.
We couch, because there's always the possibility, but the likelihood that, between pulling out and Plan B, she somehow managed to get pregnant is ridiculously low.
Yeah, pretty much. I just don't want to be the jerk who was wrong that one out of 100 000 times. :?
or other equally effective method of birth control. i like to recommend the nuva ring but i guess all girls react differently to all methods of estrogen based birth control.
my brothers girlfriend works at a hospital where they are researching the efficacy of a YEAR ROUND ring type of bc, that you never have to take out. that would be boss.
And the great thing about it is it's lower dose than the pill.
Which means that those few chicks who are rendered psychotic and/or depressed or gain a metric ton on the pill have minimal side effects.
seriously. The pill is like... archaic, now.
You're not L33T enough for IDI/RN FTP!
My fiancee uses it too... no babies for us yet, and her side effects were minimal as well. She's been using it for 2 years, and it's great.
On a side note though, if you (or she) are a bit forgetful, buy a calendar and write notes on when the rings should be going in and coming out.

Most likely you are going to be ok, the only fluids would be precum which in many cases don't have sperm. If it is comforting do the math in your head (that is what i use to do). The chances are very very minimal since you reacted quickly. Plan B only starts to loose effect after 3 days I believe. So don't worry!
I have had some startling side effects from plan B however where a period follows a week after you take it.
Good luck!
Sure it could. So could stress about being maybe pregnant. Or any number of other things.
It would delay and wont alter it, it is just a high dosage of estrogen fast. It won;t be eliminated.
