Will One Become Pregnant Due To Splitting Of A Condom During Intercourse?

I had sex just over a week ago and the condom split. I took the morning after pill a few hours after - no sickness or diarreha like pharmacist said I might get. Since taking I have experienced bad nausea, bloatedness, headaches, emotional, sensitive and very hungry. The past few days I have started getting pink spotting. I took a pregnancy test on day 7 after sex and it was negative. Could I still b pregnant?

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the morning after pill is 95% effective if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex.So as you have taken within time the chances of pregnancy are less.The pregnancy test usually gives accurate results if done a week after missed period.The first suspicion of pregnancy arises with missed period.And it can be confirmed by testing.The pregnancy symptoms like nausea,vomiting,increased urination,sore breasts start 2 weeks after missed period.The symptoms you said are due to the pill.So relax and check for the period.
