"my boyfriend and i were having sex and the condom broke. we were both in utter shock and scared  of or minds considering we are 17 and seniors in high school. i had just started birth control a week before the accident so i was still unsure because i didn&#039;t know how effective it would be so early on. we drove right to the pharmacy and got plan b. i took it within an hour of the condom breaking. i experienced some of the symptoms such as nausea, leg pain, abdominal pain, and headaches. i wasn&#039;t due for my period for another 2 weeks. these were the worst 2 weeks of my life. not knowing whether or not my life would be ruined. well, 2 weeks just went by and today i was gifted with my period! plan b saved my life."
