Q: 

I left my pills at home and went on vacation. I missed a whole week of pills and had sex but the condom broke can I be pregnant?

Hello Anon

Thank you for writing!

If you missed a week of pills and the condom broke and there was ejaculation, there there is a risk of pregnancy as you may have ovulated during that time. If this happened within 5 days, you can take emergency contraception. If not, you can test for pregnancy 14 days after sex.
Best,
Susan
