All forms of birth control have a potential failure rate. Condoms have a cited 1-2% per year of use by some reports. Proper fitting and application prior to any sexual activity help reduce risk.

Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.
