You get pregnant from sex around ovulation time, 14 days before your expected period. If the only time you had sex all month was 3 days before your expected period, and a normal period comes as expected, you are99% sure not pregnant. Buy your own condoms and vaginal spermicide, use both during the fertile window days 8-16 of 28, but a condom alone will do once ovulation has passed. Good luck!

I have only used condoms since my first child and I have not been pregnant. Condoms are fine if you dont want to use birthcontrol

A good comment, Floricica. Properly used, condoms fail once every ten years, the ryhtytm method once every 4 years, and hormone methods once about every hundred years. Using condoms plus spermicide as I suggested puts you in the same ballpark as hormones. It all depends on how safe you want to be.
