Hello Anon

Thank you for writing!

I'm not sure you understand how the birth control pill works - taken every day at the same time, it virtually eliminates the risk of pregnancy. So a broken condom should not be an issue.

Additionally, pre-ejaculate itself does not contain any sperm. Sperm may be inside the urethra if a man ejaculated recently and did not urinate since. If he urinated since he last ejaculated, there is no sperm at all. Pregnancy is very uncommon from pre-ejaculate and the urethra would have to contain sperm at the same time. A woman would also have to be ovulating and engage in unprotected intercourse with ejaculation.
Best,
Susan
