My friend and I have entered a physical relationship... We had sex today with condoms however I am no longer on birth control. I'm debating if I need to purchase plan B or not since he did ejaculate inside of me (wearing the condom of course) ..... I'm worried none the less.
I think my last cycle was August 10th-August 17th..(I know it ended on the 17th) I think the reason I'm nervous is because I might be in my ovulation stage of my cycle..
thanks for reading!! Any help would be appreciated.

So, you used a condom for all genital contact and it did not break or slip off?
If so, you used a very effective method of birth control to protect yourself. Taking Plan B would not do much to increase that protection for you, as the effectiveness rate of Plan B is lower as that of the condom.
If you don't feel comfortable using condoms alone, we can talk about your options for doubling up with a second method in the future. Would you be interested in that?

That is correct, we did use a condom for all genital contact. It did not slip or tear however next time we are planning to use lube so there's no friction. Thank you so much, I was fretting since I usually take double protection (pills and condom) and I have a tendency to worry about things as such.
I would love to talk about double protection; I used to use it all the time, however now that I live alone and supporting myself I can't afford the pill : (
Thank you once again!

It has information on various pairings of contraception you can use, and the effectiveness rate of each pairing! Do any of those pairings sound like they are doable/affordable for you?
For more detailed information on each individual type of birth control and which ones might work best for you, you can go through this article: Birth Control Bingo! which helps you figure out which type(s) of contraception would be the best fit for you.
