Answers:
If it's 48 hours since the condom broke, then yes the morning after pill is a good choice..
But if it's longer then 48 hours, try not to worry.. If she has been on the pill longer then 2 months, the pill is 99% effective.. Just wait to see if her period comes when it should, even if it's a couple days late don't panic.. If it is a week or more late, then take a pregnancy test.. Don't take a pregnancy test unless she is a week or more late because by then the pregnancy hormone will be more prominent and you will get a more accurate reading..Health Question & Answer

As long as she had taken 7 active pills in a row before this happened, even if she did start taking them a bit late, then she should be fine..
But if she hadn't taken 7 active pills over the previous 7 days before the condom breakage, then definately get the morning after pill.. But you need to get the morning after pill within 72 hours after the evnt, so you need to act fast.. Health Question & Answer

There is a chance she could become pregnant.. Plan b (the morning after pill) is really the only option if she does not want to get pregnant and that can be taken 72 hours after the incident..Health Question & Answer
