Condoms are statistically 85% effective. This statistic is based on them being worn correctly and not breaking or leaking. If the condom didn't break or leak the chances of you being pregnant are slim to not.
There are other factors to take into consideration such as where in your cycle you were when you had sex. The average woman on a 28 day cycle is most fertile between the 7th and 21st day of her cycle. This is when her ovary is most likely to eject an egg. This is called ovulation and every women should know when they ovulate. Knowing this tells you when not to have sex even when using condoms or on birth control and for when you do want to get pregnant. Having sex 3 days before or three days after ovulation is when you are most likely to get pregnant.
Do the math, you know when you rlast period was and when you had sex. IF you do the math you will know if you were in your safe weeks. That plus condoms decreases the chances of pregnancy.
While I do not think you are pregnant and only to put your mind at rest; take a home pregnancy test. Note there are more false positives in these test so if you do test positive do not freak. By another test kit from a different company and test again in ten days.
You haven't said how old you are though if you are between the ages of 14 and 18 and sexually active you should be on birth control. A federal Law called HIPPA allows you to ask any doctor or clinic for birth control medication without parental permission or knowledge. With in this HIPPA LAW is a section that gives young people between these ages medical privacy over their reproductive system.
No one not even a parent can know why you visited a doctor for anything having to do with your reproductive system. Congress passed this law not to promote sex in young people but to promote medical assistance for those things you might be too embarrassed to talk to a parent about. By virtue of this law young people between these ages can make appointments, be seen and treated by doctors without parental consent for anything related to their reproductive systems. Because of this you can ask the doctor for birth control medication and the doctor must write a script for it if there is no medical reason not to.
Neither the doctor or the pharmacist can tell anyone about your visit or your prescription without your expressed written permission. To do so is punishable by 5 years in jail and a $5,000 fine.
With this information there is no reason not to be on birth control. You can go to any free clinic and ask for it just mention HIPPA and bring proof of age. Continue to use condoms as condoms prevent the transmission of many STDS and the HIV/AIDS virus. Plus condoms and birth control are 99.999% effective in preventing pregnancy.
