There is always the chance of getting pregnant when you have genital to genital contact. The risk increases if he ejaculates in your vagina.
A pregnancy test detects hCG, which is a hormone that is produced only during pregnancy. Levels can be detected by a blood test about 11 days after conception and about 12 to 14 days after conception by a urine test. You tested too early.
An emergency contraceptive, like Plan B One-Step, is effective if taken as soon as possible. It should be taken within 72 hours or 3 days following unprotected sex or contraception failure, like a broken condom.
There was no need to take a pregnancy test after taking the pill. You simply wasted your time and money.
If you took the emergency contraceptive as directed, then, you are not pregnant. Now that you are sexually active, you need to choose and use birth control regularly and consistently.
