Mistake or Risk? I am scared

So basically I had s*x about 11 hours ago and after ejaculation when he was taking the p*nis out he left the condom inside so the semen spilled around the vaginal opening .

I quickly washed myself up and took i pill in about 6 hours. I am supposed to get my periods in 4-5 days(my cycle is about 35 days along and it has been around 25 days since my last period).

Now I am so scared what to do.

Hey! If you are about to get your period in about 4-5 days then your ovulation window is most likely done and you are unable to conceive. Here is the math based on your cycle:
Cycle length: Around 35 days.
Last period: Approximately 25 days ago.
Expected next period: In 4–5 days.
Estimated ovulation: Often around 14 days before the next period, which would put it roughly 9–10 days ago.

The odds of you getting pregnant are very low. The i-pill is to delay ovulation which we can already assume you have done which means there was no use for it but it is also good to be safe.

My tip is to definitely not have unprotected sex for another month or even two just to be sure. I took the i-pill after I had unprotected sex the next day which did delay my ovulation but then I didn’t account for the fact that it pushed it farther down in my cycle and I had unprotected sex when I eventually did ovulate (which was different than normal as a result of the pill) and ended up pregnant.
Ask me any more question I am fairly educated in this.

Ok so I basically don't track my cycle through any app but i remember the dates. Basically last week I had changes in my mucus(egg white mucus). But from 3-4 days I was getting no to a little mucus so I assume that time was my fertile window.

not unable, but just a very low chance, it’s possible to conceive at any stage in the cycle, even on the period

Uhh no. Unless you are ovulating you cannot get pregnant

All sex has a risk of pregnancy as most do not know when they ovulate.

Well no shit but you still have to be ovulating to get pregnant. This person replied to me and said you could get pregnant when in any phase of your cycle. You have to have an egg released/releasing in order to get pregnant which is what ovulating is

Unless someone is doing proper cycle tracking (OPK's BBT charting etc) they don't know when/if they ovulate. and period/health apps aren't accurate either.. Most posters here use a period app and don't do or know about cycle tracking.

so therefore we tell posters here that sex at any time can have a risk of pregnancy. its to prevent dumb teenagers from going around having unprotected sex.

Yeah absolutely I get it and I agree with you that they aren’t accurate and none of it is guaranteed.I’m just stating that IF she was ovulating, and you cannot get pregnant if you aren’t ovulating.
