“Could I be pregnant? ”
A few weeks ago, during sex, the condom fell off and we didn’t notice until 10 mins later. He didn’t cum in me and I took plan B the next day to be safe. My period is a week late, but I’ve taken four pregnancy tests that were all negative. Should I be worried?

Depending on where you are in your cycle when you take Plan B, one of the side-effects of this medication can be that your period may come sooner or later than expected. If taken prior to ovulation, Plan B works by delaying ovulation which would then, in turn, delay your period. This is normal and might explain why your period is late. I would wait another week and if your period still has not come, take another pregnancy test. If it has been over 21 days since the unprotected sex and your period still has not come and your pregnancy tests continue to be negative, consult with your GYN provider.
